KTLA in Los Angeles did what the “mainstream” media commonly do when they address issues related to immigration. With slanted reporting, they create fake news. KTLA reported in a headline that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) staged a raid at the “home of a pregnant mother”
The report stated that “The raid occurred Thursday morning when about a half-dozen vehicles carrying heavily armed, masked U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents converged on a home occupied by a 28-year-old pregnant mother of four.” It focused on this woman’s distress, and only mentioned in passing that the agents were seeking her “undocumented” husband.
And why were they looking for him? DHS replied as follows; “FAKE NEWS. At this house was an illegal alien from Mexico who had previously been deported.”
Bill Melugin, a Fox News correspondent who accompanied the agents added that “[The raid] wasn’t targeting a ‘pregnant mother,’ it was targeting her previously deported illegal alien Mexican husband who had been convicted of drug trafficking in February and had an attempted murder charge pleaded down to an assault conviction. ICE had a criminal judicial warrant for his arrest, signed off on by a federal judge, because he illegally re-entered the U.S. after removal, which is a felony.”
“Of course, none of that context is in KTLA reporting here as they only spoke to his wife, who . . . didn’t disclose any of his criminal history.”
