No Major Legacy News Outlet Has Informed Its Readers How Spain’s Amnesty & Liberalized Migration Policies Caused the Crisis That Killed 57

Spain's @sanchezcastejon says the migrant crisis that's left 57 dead isn't his fault. But the day before it, he defended mass amnesty, saying, “Spain has never moved forward by building walls.” Practically everything he's said about mass migration, including for GDP, is false. pic.twitter.com/FWsshXD6S9

… No major legacy news outlet has informed its readers how Spain’s amnesty & liberalized migration policies caused the crisis that killed 57. Most ignore them. The @NYT says it’s “too early to know.” Journalistic clown show even by the media’s debased standards.

Journalist malpractice by @washingtonpost on Ceuta. No mention of @sanchezcastejon open borders policies nor his speech the day before the crisis celebrating himself for giving amnesty to illegal migrants.https://t.co/19QoK429sr
