Media spent an entire week fabricating this narrative: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5869829/Father-two-year-old-face-child-separation-crisis-speaks-out.html … . Just one example. Don’t you think he has a point?https://twitter.com/brianstelter/status/1011402131876794374 …

Buried how far down? After the huge photo and inference. Are you joking? That’s not a legitimate way to present that story and it falls in line with Time’s defense that it set the tone so context didn’t matter. That’s not solid reporting.
-
To briefly add about Time’s defense — other outlets stood by their ridiculous assertion that the context was irrelevant because “she became the face of the story.” But this is just one, one story of so many more that feeds this distrust of media.

I have also been careful to not universally indict all media as some journalists have been very balanced, but that is the exception. The threat to reporting is the poor practicing of it, not the reaction to the poor practice of it.

A footnote at the bottom of the story doesn't count. Are you really this dishonest? (rhetorical question, we know you are)

Literally had NOTHING to do with "zero tolerance." Why don't you recite what ACTUALLY happened in this case?

How about this entire story based 2014 Obama photos and blaming Trump. How about blatantly coflating people seeking Refugee status and those crossing the border illegally? How about failing to mention the kids being separated from coyotes and traffickers?

Brian-- we can all cite example after example of intentionally false and/or misleading stories all of which by chance reflected poorly on the right. If you personally are so credible perhaps you might want to spend your energy calling them to task not your many critics.

Note how it took him THREE MINUTES to even find the bit about an ICE person saying they were never separated. How many consumers of CNN read, or watch, that long with a singular focus? Considering the clickbait climate, it's safe to say "not many, if any at all".
