Irresponsible reporting

Television stations have a responsibility to provide accurate news. One particularly obvious example of their failure is the recent visit of the President and former President to Texas to talk about immigration. The news reported that “thousands” of immigrants had entered the county and then showed former President Trump claiming that “millions and millions and millions” of immigrants had entered. The broadcast choice of the excerpt from his speech should never have been shown as it contradicted what had just been presented to the public. How can viewers be expected to understand the issues if they are presented in so flagrantly contradictory a way?
