FAIR: It’s Time for the Media to Start Asking Some Serious Questions About the Administration’s Border and Immigration Crisis
Here’s a List to Help Them Get Started
(May 13, 2021, Washington, D.C.) — Almost four months into an unprecedented migration crisis at our southern border, it is long past time for the Biden administration to give the American public a straightforward account of what, if anything, they intend to do to curb mass illegal immigration and the record levels of unaccompanied children crossing our border, declared the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). It has traditionally been the role of the Fourth Estate to elicit honest responses about tough issues from those in power – something that has been conspicuously lacking in the media’s coverage of the Biden administration’s handling of the border and immigration policy.
“Two years ago, amidst another migration crisis at the border, the American news media asked tough, pointed questions of the Trump administration and refused to accept evasive or patently inaccurate answers from the president or his spokespeople. The American people deserve nothing less from journalists covering the Biden White House,” declared Dan Stein, president of FAIR.
