Re: Media Bias

Another example of a story deliberately omitting facts or information. In this case to push for something that the President doesn't have the authority to do. They want him to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment as Virginia became the necessary 38th state to ratify the ERA a couple of years back. What the story omits is that there was a specific deadline Congress set for ratifying the amendment and that deadline expired 42 years ago. They also omit that 5 states withdrew their ratification before the deadline. They want the President to ignore the deadline and the 5 states that rescinded the ratification. It would be a massive overreach that likely would not ever be accepted by political opponents or the courts. Bottomline it would contribute to the divide in the US.
