Media: Repeating Trump’s lies is irresponsible journalism
Re: “Trump: Democrats now begging for new virus stimulus talks,” (TNT, 8/11).
I’m hoping you follow better journalistic practices and quit quoting the president due to his numerous and continuous stream of lies that you are perpetuating.
For example, you printed this headline knowing full well that it was denied in the second and third paragraphs of the news article.
Move on from this disaster of a man and at least vet everything he says before repeating it. Responsible journalists figured this out years ago.
