‘Articles were wrong’: CNN fact checker says media incorrectly labeled Kamala ‘Border Czar’


CNN senior fact checker Daniel Dale said on Thursday that the media incorrectly labeled Vice President Kamala Harris the “border czar.”

Media outlets rushed to erase their own reporting to downplay Harris’ role in managing the border crisis by saying she is solely responsible for addressing “root causes” in Latin American countries. Dale continued with this recent trend by saying the media wrongfully portrayed Harris as the “border czar.”

“He [former President Donald Trump] said she was Joe Biden’s border czar. She wasn’t,” Dale said. “She was never put in charge of the border. She was given a much more limited assignment to lead a so-called root causes diplomatic effort trying to address the reasons in Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras that people choose to migrate. And many Republicans’ scoff at this kind of fact check, saying there were a bunch of articles back in 2021 calling her the border czar. Frankly, those articles were wrong.”

How about Biden himself? Was he wrong in 2021 telling us she was in charge of the border with Harris sitting right next to him.

A bunch of articles with no correction requests from the White House or Kamala in that time period. Sorry, you don’t get to change the truth years later because it hurts you politically.

What's funny is they are basically admitting the border is a disaster. Otherwise they would have no problem calling her border czar.

So are they hanging their new take on this that Biden didn't say the actual word "czar"?

It is seriously mind-blowing and actually really scary that the MSM is trying to convince America that Kamala wasn't put in charge of the border. I realize that they lie all of the time, but to try to rewrite history that happened in only the past couple of years by trying to erase every article that they themselves wrote about it, and then telling everyone that it was a figment of everyone's imagination is just insane. And the fact that there are a large portion of their audience that will actually rationalize it is just insane as well.

This is a very scary step that the MSM has taken if for no other reason than it is so blatant and "in your face", and yet they really expect everyone to agree with it.

So we should trust the previous fact checkers who were wrong then but right now?
