Greg Weeks at UNC-Charlotte (and also my son) posted an item today that requires a complete copying from his blog to this one:
An immigration reform bill was introduced in the Senate, and I found it interesting that Fox News Latino ran a story that spun it in a very favorable light:
Top Senate Democrats launched on Wednesday another bid to pass a comprehensive immigration reform they say will enhance U.S. economic productivity and national security even as it provides a path to legalization for 11 million undocumented immigrants.
That made me wonder how the regular Fox News website framed the story, so I went to check. In fact, they chose not to mention the bill at all. Instead, the top story today under immigration began with the following:
For the first time, minorities make up a majority of babies in the U.S., part of a sweeping race change and growing age divide between mostly white, older Americans and predominantly minority youths that could reshape government policies.
