"Is that actually the case? The attacker in the Breitscheidplatz truck attack in Berlin was Tunisian" First - there are 1 million migrants in Germany for which the government made no checks whatsoever. Second - nobody is going to argue that a governments assessment is going to be entirely valid. But it's helpful. The notion of 'not allowing people in unless there is a background check' is very rational from a policy perspective. Anyhow - it's besides the point regarding the press: that the countries listed were those for whom there can be no background checks is most of the rationale. The press largely failed to report this. Specifically in Fareeds presentation of the facts. Ergo - not doing his job. The press, more than ever, needs to hold themselves to the most objective standards they can.
