Instead of checking facts, media mostly went with Obama admin narrative -- even explainer sites like Vox parroted this false claim.

When Obama admin/ICE picked up 121 mothers & children in Jan, it was only able to deport 89 people. (Being a reporter, I actually checked.)

Four months later, media's still a basic wrong: just because judge orders someone to leave the US, it doesn't necessarily mean it's final.

Four months later, media STILL reporting 121 people were deported from Jan raids. It's troubling; illustrates big blind spot for immigrants.
