MODERATORS
Is it even legal for news media to misquote someone, especially an elected official?
They're not a "news" organization. They're corporate media, entertainment. They even lost one of their certifications as a "trusted news source" for blatantly lying and regurgitating internet memes without checking their sources.
Please share the source for your claim about certification? My searching left me nothing but a snopes article debunking similar claims.
Ironic
That's great and all, but their behavior and actions are that of a news agency regardless, so wouldn't they have to face the same scrutiny as a news agency?
