The most dangerous lies in journalism aren’t always what reporters tell you. They’re what they deliberately leave out. And 60 Minutes just delivered another master class in media manipulation.
CBS rolled out the emotional music, the heartbroken wife, the crying children, and the familiar sob story of an illegal alien deported by President Trump. Meet Moussa Diawara, an African migrant from Mali who overstayed his visa and spent 25 years in America illegally.
According to 60 Minutes, he’s just a loving husband and father ripped away from his family by Trump’s heartless immigration enforcement.
But here’s what 60 Minutes didn’t tell you.
According to an asylum application obtained by Fox News, Diawara previously claimed he was a homosexual facing execution in Mali because of his sexuality. Now he’s presented as a married father of two. That doesn’t prove his original claim was fraudulent, but it raises questions that 60 Minutes apparently didn’t think Americans deserved to hear.
And it gets worse. A top Department of Homeland Security official says he spent nearly an hour explaining immigration fraud and dangerous criminals to CBS. Those portions never made the broadcast.
This is the lie-by-omission scam. Select the facts that advance your political narrative. Bury the facts that challenge it. Manipulate the audience with emotion. Then call it journalism.
This isn’t investigative reporting. In my view, it’s propaganda disguised as a newsmagazine.
Today on Stinchfield, we expose the missing facts, the questionable editorial decisions, and how one of America’s most celebrated news programs has become another weapon in the media’s war against President Trump’s immigration crackdown.
60 Minutes doesn’t need to tell an outright lie to deceive America. It just needs to hide enough of the truth.
