Accuracy in Media

There is a long list of reasons that went into President Trump’s decision to fire Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State on Tuesday. The men disagreed on whether to pull out of the Iran agreement, the Paris climate accords and the Trans-Pacific Partnership. Tillerson was a joiner – and advocated staying once on the inside. […]

For more than 100 years, the Associated Press was a beacon of unbiased journalism. Its copy delivered the news, withheld the opinion and covered, as Mark Twain once said, everything under the sun. But that’s no longer the case. The AP Stylebook, its guide for questions such as where to put the comma, how to […]

Aside from the president himself, no one in the Trump administration gets inside the head of the mainstream media like Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.

Now, that long-held protocol is no more, at least for the new Secretary of State Rex Tillerson. Tillerson did not take […]

A lot of speculation at the Washington Post, but the whole and complete story is still unknown at this point. The article created a web graphic, where Trump and members of his campaign (i.e. Jeff Sessions, Jared Kushner, Rex Tillerson and Mike Flynn, to name a few) are linked (or possibly linked) to the Russian […]

The Los Angeles Times’ recent analysis of U.S.-Mexico relations involves a lot of confusion over what the end result will be between the Trump administration and Mexico.
