The problem with these false frames is that they persist over years and define the public debate a lot more that the detailed reporting.
Especially striking to see them regurgitated in pieces where the false frame is belied by every other line of detailed! great! reporting.
But it's like getting the headline all wrong. The headline plus the framing define most of the impact; not the otherwise correct details.

Seriously, every line of that piece belies this lazy, false stereotype/cliche—but that's what gets traction.https://twitter.com/edatpost/status/845599379989938177 …

I think it comes partly from politics reporters who don't know the difference between sales and marketing/branding
How can anyone write that piece and that sentence at the same time? Baffles me.
