During her appearance on Jonathan Capehart's MSNBC show on Sunday, NPR journalist Maria Hinojosa claimed it was vital to "get the narrative straight and correct"

But Hinojosa herself then proceeded to perpetrate a false narrative. She accused border patrol agents of having "whipped" black Haitian migrants.

This, despite the fact that the agents have been cleared of charges, and the photographer who took the photos in question having said that they had been misconstrued, and that he had never seen any whipping.

I’d like to see the border agents sue Hinojosa for slander. I’d say they’d have a good shot at success.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

National People’s Radio has never been one to let facts get in the way of a useful narrative.

“NPR = Never Presenting Reality”

I’m forced to listen to in passing. They’re STILL obsessing on Trump and his family. They are insane.
