the fox news interview of Steven nelson was another journalistic low. This Nelson person was not an original information source and took pains to spin Trumps remark to his own unenlightened opinion about the govt shutdown.
The interview conductor also took pains to spin the interview against Trump, voicing concerns about the personal lives of govt workers of which they had no proof or source material.
Distilling facts from a press conf. using a reporter from another publication implies Fox had no one covering this Trump press conf. ?
Get a govt worker to opine or give statements that's what journalism
is. Don't start theorizing as if it was an opinion show.
The worthless interviewer, after wringing a bundle of opinions and spin from Nelson, then said well what can you tell from the reporting? Um honey that's just what he was doing. a and her question implies that Trumps statements aren't the best authority but instead Fox viewers want to hear the expectorants of a hostile press corp


As if to say, why bother to get sources when you can just stretch and bend the journalistic nonsense in the press as if it stands for anything other than space filling, and extract from that projections, tea leaf readings, estimations.
what lazy reporting. Go find a govt employee and let them express their worry. Get a TSA worker on camera or in silhouette expressing their feelings.

The interview started talking in soap opera phrases like " what about employees with young children...contractors...(__violins)

What? At this point they're just playing violins. Making up stuff. Shame on Fox. That's for MSNBC or CNN. I thought Fox was better than soaping bubbles.
what about the long unenforced border issues in cases like California and the press aversion to candidly covering on the ground facts of southern cali is like? This is a national crisis and with skin in the game news agency after news agency refuses to interview Los Angeles residents about how they feel.
what job searching and existence is like in California, what looking for housing is like with i******s living six to a room and paying under the table. These topics are nowhere in the national news.
There is actual news out there to find, Fox, you don't have to script two wide eyed hacks f**e dialogue.
