Judge Ann Donnelly of the U.S. Federal District Court in
Brooklyn, New York, issued a nationwide injunction on January 28, 2017
concerning President Donald Trump’s executive order barring people from seven
countries from entering the United States. On the same day, BBC (America) radio
reported that Trump had been stopped in his tracks. I submit that this instance
points to the importance of investigative journalism prior to reporting.
Alternatively, the case may illustrate a partisan or otherwise ideological
penchant among journalists officially tasked with investigating and reporting
rather than interpreting the news.
The full essay is at "President Trump's Muslim Ban."
