'Same rake, different day': MORE blue check journos use Obama-era photo to sound alarm about Trump policies

Doug P. | 10:41 AM on May 28, 2018

As we told you yesterday, many totally objective (*eye roll*) “journalists” and liberals got caught using a photo from 2014 to slam Trump for children detained at the border. But this wasn’t the only picture that pre-dated the Trump presidency the media tried to pass off as having been taken recently. This Is Now news found another:

BUSTED! @NowThisNews caught using Obama-era photo from 2016 to slam Trump in 2018 https://t.co/KQpj29HQ9H

But because of “journalism,” it didn’t stop there.

Oh sure, there was some important context missing:

Graphic reality check on US immigration policy. But important piece of context in the link. This precedes Trump. Photo taken when Obama was president. https://t.co/7iaUJUMi4k

Another day, another Obama-era photo surfaces in order to sound the alarm about Trump.

So I see we’re on day two of media blaming Trump for things that happened in 2016 before Trump was in office. https://t.co/wy01WJ6q54

For some reason “journalists” didn’t seem to notice this kind of stuff nearly as much when Obama was president. It’s almost as if they’re biased!

So-called journalists: OMG LOOK AT THESE IMAGES OF KIDS IN CAGES. TRUMP IS A MONSTER.

Anyone who can read: Those images are from 2014. Obama was president

So-called journalists: Oh, never mind then. There’s no story here. Move along. Delete delete delete.

Sad, but true.
