Allegations Surface of Axios’ Misrepresentation on Kamala Harris’ Border Role

The progressive news platform, Axios, has recently come under fire for allegedly distorting its coverage of Vice President Kamala Harris’ involvement as the ‘border czar’ in the Biden administration. Critics argue that this is part of a broader pattern within left-leaning media circles to sanitize their narratives on this topic in an effort to obscure reality from the American populace.

The Media’s Endeavour to Reinterpret Harris’ Position

The challenges at the border and unauthorized immigration have emerged as crucial concerns for voters, thereby posing a potential risk to Harris. The liberal media’s endeavor to minimize her role is seen as a tactical move to safeguard her reputation. However, NewsBusters has been diligently exposing the media’s stance on this matter, spotlighting instances where networks like CNN and ABC News have previously referred to Harris as the ‘border czar’.

In June of 2021, CNN senior national correspondent Ed Lavandera repeated the framing of Harris as border czar: “The Vice President is expected to in El Paso in about an hour and a half… and this will be her first visit to the U.S.-Mexico border region since she was appointed as the border czar by President Biden.”

Journalists were using this same language as recently as last week. During the ABC News Live coverage of the RNC, anchor Kanya Whitworth remarked that the speakers “were very critical of Kamala Harris, especially in her role as border czar.”

Politico’s whining about the border czar label dates back to when Harris was appointed border czar. In fresher gripes about Republicans from over the weekend, they reported: “Despite insisting that she not be made the face of the administration’s border policies, Harris was tasked with stemming migration from Central American countries. That prompted GOP attacks on her as ‘border czar,’ a narrative the White House did little to combat.” Along with: “During the Republican convention last week, many speakers labeled Harris as the “border czar,” since Biden appointed her to take the lead on working with Central America to deter migration at the southern border.”

The Media’s Unsuccessful Effort to Conceal The Reality

Despite the media’s attempts to redefine their narrative, their past coverage stands as an indelible record of truth. The public is encouraged to view a video that contrasts the media’s former and present stance on Harris’ position. This is considered evidence of their purported manipulation.

It’s evident that regardless of their efforts, it will be a daunting task for the media to keep this matter hidden from the watchful eyes of the discerning public.
