Border Crisis: What Happened to Prime-Time Coverage of the Southern Border?
amac ^ | 02/23/2023

President Biden and members of his administration are knowingly making false statements about the rampant illegal immigration taking place along the U.S.-Mexico border as the problem continues to get much worse.

Take, for example, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas who told a Congressional panel last year that he still believes that America’s southern border is secure, saying in response to a question about his confidence, “Yes, and we are working day in and day out to enhance security,” Fox News reported. Then there is Vice President Kamala Harris, the White House’s anointed ‘Border Czar,’ who told NBC News’ Chuck Todd that “the border is secure,” as Todd tried desperately to keep from smiling in disbelief.

So what happened to prime-time coverage of the humanitarian disaster unfolding at the Southern Border? Does the woke liberal media care about the coyotes who prey on poor, defenseless families to smuggle them to the land of the free, or do they do an exposé about the human traffickers taking kidnapped Central American daughters into the international sex trade? We’ve come to expect that some of our politicians will lie every once in a while, Democrats more often than not. When that happens, the media, in theory, is supposed to be there to check them, playing the role of a citizen watchdog with the public’s interest at heart. Sounds like a wonderful system. But the reality, unfortunately, is quite different.

Only when they could make the border patrol look bad. I have spend a lot of time in the border towns in Texas. NONE of their local news ever gets out of the border region. I would see a story on the tv news out of McAllen, but you would never see that same news in SA, Austin, Houston or Dallas. It was as if the news agencies were censoring what news came out of the valley area. And this was 20 years ago.

Imagine a world where income tax wasn't automatically deducted from your paycheck and the government's failure to provide a key service tied to their ability to tax you would be automatic grounds to deny that payment. Things would be so much different.
