Response from a Journalist
There was an article in Roll Call Magazine (online). The title was "Sealing off the border" "Anti immigration groups gear up for action"
I wrote the author of the article to call him on the "anti immigration" part of the sub title.
I wrote this to him,
"Mr Matthew, your headline is deceiving. These are "anti- illegal immigration groups". They are not against our current laws of legal immigration, they want enforcement of the laws already in place. Should I assume you titled your article that way on purpose?"
His Response was, "Thanks for your feedback, but "anti-immigration groups" is the phrase preferred by the universally regarded Associated Press."
Perhaps we need to pay closer attention and call these writers on their words more often as a lot of people just browse head lines as opposed to reading entire article.
