CNN vs. FOX

Today, the most common way people get their information is through news channels, like CNN and FOX.  I visited the sites two news sites to compare the headlines and found that examining the “politics” tab would be the most useful and straight to the point.  
Within the past week, many news headlines have been about the National Emergency at our southern border that Trump called to order stating that the wall needs to be put up as soon as possible. The CNN article's headline is a picture of The President of The United States that states "Trump again dares courts to stop him."  After the announcement of the emergency, the liberals were phased by what the president had done. The more progressives news outlet had a lot to say about the topic, https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/19/politics/donald-trump-presidency-history-immigration-republicans/index.html states that "The President hit back Tuesday after 16 states filed a lawsuit to stop his declaration aimed at redirecting funds already allocated by Congress for different purposes to build his border wall. "  
On the other hand, Fox Nation's political tab had nothing to do with President Trump's announcement to the public.  Fox News headline was directly targeting the Democrat party by stating that they're becoming "moderate." Democrats are now upset that people are labeling them as less than liberal.  https://www.foxnews.com/politics/2020-dems-cringe-at-being-labeled-less-than-liberal states, "Senator Klobuchar becomes the latest in in growing pool of the 2020 Democratic contenders."..."Just don't call her 'moderate'."  

Both news outlets had very different headlines that corresponded with their strong opinion about their political views.[2 pictures, 2 quotations, 2 links, 266 words]
