Excellent example of media “both-sides-ing”: According to @axios Congresswoman Dingell ‘hit back’ by talking about her grief after the President suggested her dead husband is in hell? That’s ‘hitting back’? Whew. Media is not serving you, folks.

NEW: Rep. Debbie Dingell hit back at President Trump after he mocked her and her late husband, Rep. John Dingell, whom he suggested may be in hell: You brought me down in a way you can never imagine"

@soledadobrien @girlsreallyrule @axios Translation: @realDonaldTrump once more embellished & lied about the facts surrounding Rep.John #Dingell #Trump called Rep Debbie Dingell not the way Trump relayed the story. ☑️

@soledadobrien @axios You read my mind - that's what I though too - that expressing her grief = "hitting"? "Expresses" would have worked fine.

@soledadobrien @axios Looks like the reporter put it in context correctly but the social media headliner writer put that trash take in there for clicks

@soledadobrien @axios This is why I have unfollowed so many news feeds. Putting Dingells reply to the barbaric rhetoric and lies of Trump on the same level is almost as vile as Trump's comment. Even reporting isn't acting as if both sides of a topic have equal weight. This isn't the WWE.

@astrachanideas @axios It’s framed around a state of mind that says for every thing one ‘side’ does the other ‘sides’’ reaction needs to be framed as equal. IE: “both sides”. So yes, obviously sloppy and lame. But it’s due to the ‘both sides’ mindset.

@soledadobrien @FrankConniff @axios They do like their violent imagery, don't they? I suppose it fires the blood and inspires clicks. Then again, @axios isn't on my short list of reliable sources, so...

@soledadobrien @axios Almost nothing is simply a “comment on,” or “response to.” The preference seems to be for more hyperbolic and bellicose terms like, “rips,” “blasts,” or “hits back.” And while I’m here - someone seriously needs to speak with editors about what constitutes “speaking out.”

@soledadobrien @axios Their reporting is becoming more and more shallow interpretation. I hope we are not morphing into reporting like this.
