Senate Releases Border Amnesty Bill on Sunday Night

Why Troubling News:

The author's bias is apparent from the title alone and misinforms the reader about the legislation. Jazz Shaw lies to his audience about the proposed legislation allowed thousands of migrants to enter the country illegally. Third party fact-checkers have reported that the bill would bar people from seeking asylum if a border crossing area experienced approximately 5,000 encounters a day. The misinformation and negative tone against the bill and legislators pushing it was designed to mobilize its readers against the legislation. If the author had put his bias aside and analyzed the bill objectively, he would've come to a different conclusion and left the audience with a well-rounded perspective on the bill.
