NYT op-ed mocked for dismissing border crisis as fearmongering tactic: 'Reprehensible excuse for journalism'
Fox News
A New York Times opinion piece drew attention on Saturday after claiming that the intense focus on the border is only because “someone is trying to scare you."
"Here’s the truth: If you’re hearing about the border, it’s likely that somebody is trying to scare you. Broadly speaking, Republicans want you to be scared of immigrants, and Democrats want you to be scared of Republicans. Our fixation on terrorists has faded, but we have retained, as a legacy from that frightened era, the habit of thinking about the border as a security risk that must be mastered," Stack wrote.
