Quote:The reporter for the<a class="bbc_url" href='http://www.kpho.com/story/29834471/gop-hopeful-ben-carson-tours-border-talks-drone-strikes?autostart=true'> local news station in Arizona</a> didn't take anything out of context at all, but let's take a look at what MSNBC is reporting and see if there is any bias. I would encourage people to go to the link, read the story and watch the video.


If you follow the link to the original local broadcast and listen to what he says, he is clearly talking about eliminating some of the caves that aid in drug smuggling not specifically illegal immigration. He says that it would be easy to eliminate those caves, but that he would leave those kinds of operations to people that are experts at what they do (the military).


Now take a look at the text of the MSNBC article.


It's decided in this article that republican candidates' proposals with regard to dealing with illeagal immigration are "far-flung", and that he talked about a "means to decrease the undocumented immigrant population currently in the U.S. and keep others from coming". That's not what he said or talked about at all.


Then "reporting" that republican's proposals are "politically impossible to outrageously expensive" is not fact, it's opinion.


Some more from the MSNBC article.


As far as I know, this is outright false. If someone can provide some kind of evidence of "more than half of the GOP field" calling for that, then I'm certainly open to seeing the evidence.


Here is some more from the MSNBC article.


False. He never said anything about military strikes against anyone.



I could go on, but I would rather challenge others to look at the stories themselves and draw their own conclusions.

In other words. Drone strikes inside US soil. Like I said.


Yes yes bias. Blah blah. Nearly every link posted here including all the click baity drifter nonsense contains bias because that's how media is now. You pulled the both parties do it card in another thread recently. Does that mean you will be doing this for all links mads or just the liberal biased ones?
