OOPS: Media Hype Harsh UN Migrant-Kids Study, Delete Since UN Data’s From Obama Era

20th November 2019

Read it.

This would be funny, if it wasn’t just so sad. Several media outlets had their credibility put to the test this week (and shocker, failed miserably) after a report from the United Nations out Monday left out a pretty significant detail. The report appeared to condemn President Trump over the “inhuman” border policy, calling the U.S. out for having the “world’s highest rate of children in detention [centers].” The media rushed to share the report as more bad news for Trump. However they were singing a very different tune when the UN report’s author later clarified that his data was from 2015, when President Obama was in office.

Unsurprisingly, a number of outlets rushed to salvage their reports upon finding this out. But instead of keeping the reports up with a correction for the dates, they scrubbed their ENTIRE stories.

Oops indeed. I guess anything that impugns The Magic Negro goes down the Memory Hole.
