Editing shows you can't trust media

Here is Donald Trump's full tweet: "Appreciate the congrats for being right on radical Islamic terrorism, I don't want congrats, I want toughness & vigilance. We must be smart!"

Why is the media only reporting this portion of the tweet? "Appreciate the congrats for being right on radical Islamic terrorism".

By omitting the full text, it skews the content. But this would also be the same media that endorses Katie Couric and her editing of the recent video to cast gun owners in a negative light, when the whole unedited video illustrates different.

It's no wonder why people do not trust the government and the media in bed with it.
