This Is How The Media Deceptively Crafts A Narrative Against Republicans in Two Tweets
I have to hand it to this handsome and intelligent Latino man because he predicted the media bias on Trump’s speech today:
Crowd applauding Trump saying he loves the Mexican people. Definitely won't be reported.

Not only did Trump praise the Mexican people over and over, but the crowd loved it. They applauded loudly. This has nothing to do with racism against Mexicans, it has to do with anger against illegal immigration and illegal immigrant crime.
But this is the quote they pull for their headline:
Donald Trump says Mexicans are 'killing us' in latest inflammatory speech http://t.co/j9WX6BwLKF pic.twitter.com/HxSoOIFDGp

I gotta admit, it’s brilliantly deceptive. Trump said that the government was “killing us” with their business policies. That’s what he was referring to. But by chopping up his quote, they make it appear like he’s reiterating the false media narrative that he believes all Mexicans are murderers.
