Time used to be a very informative, insightful magazine.  Now, it's become nothing more than a propaganda rag.

bullshit.  where did it say this girl was separated from her mother?  a person can be the face of a bunch of kids who have been separated without actually being separated.  you can tell from the original picture it is out on the road somewhere and not in a baby cage, so if anyone thought she was GOING to be separated, that would be a reasonable conclusion- given immoral trump's zero tolerance arrest the parents policy..duh.  you stupid ass right wingers are the ones acting like it is that big a deal if she ended up being separated or not, the pain and anquish she was showing just having her mother being treated like a criminal suspect is what the photo showed, and it touched people with a soul, which leaves you out. that is why her picture was used- to show the pain and anguish toddlers and kids feel whenever they are in a stressful situation.  and you really think Time was trying to trick anybody using that picture?  and it proves they are not reliable?  damn, you are incredibly goofy and partisan.  you believe fox and because Time used that picture it is not reliable?  what a dumbass.  did you ever go to school and learn about symbolism and art and all that good stuff? ?

just having her mother being treated like a criminal suspect is what the photo showed



Yup. This could be a scene from any airport security gate in the US. A mother puts a child down to be searched.

probably not.  not nearly the same weirdness.  women put their babies down a lot during the day. this was at night, with flashlights blaring, just a whole other level than being in a well lit airport.  nice try, though.  throw out anything to defend Trump, right?

You have a point short round.

Most people don't drag their children through the wilderness in the middle of the night to commit an illegal act.

You have to admit it was a very powerful picture.


Imagine one of Obama looking down on an aborted fetus.

Yup. A trip to a local US Embassy would have eliminated the need to hire a human trafficker and a dangerous trip for her child.

yeah, you walked a mile in her shoes, you know exactly what she went through and why she did what she did.  white guys in this country and white women know exactly what they would do if they were faced with such limited options..and make much better decisions!!  and never cross a boundary line!!  that is just so, you know, latino!!  white people living in poverty and in desperation never do anything illegal in a rural area with mainly white residents....

If that was her only choice I might agree with you short round. But it wasn't.

She had a legal/safe remedy for her situation but choose to break the law and put her child in danger to do it.

All I Wanted to Do Was Pick Her Up.’ How a Photographer at the U.S.-Mexico Border Made an Image America Could Not Ignore            "This one was tough for me. As soon as it was over, they were put into a van. I had to stop and take deep breaths," Getty photographer John Moore said      

      




            

John Moore has been photographing immigrants and the hardship and heartbreak of crossing the U.S.-Mexico border for years — but this time, he said, something is different.
The Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer for Getty Images said the Trump administration’s policy of separating children from their parents — part of its “zero tolerance” stance toward people who illegally cross into the U.S. — has changed everything about enforcement at the U.S.-Mexico border and resulted in a level of despair for immigrants that Americans can no longer ignore.

Isn't that what you Repocons should say about FOX?

FOX News used to be a very informative, insightful, though somewhat biased news channel. 
Now, it's become nothing more than a propaganda rag for the Presidency.

I actually can't remember when it was way way more slanted than any other major media.  but it is true today there is not even an attempt to hide their obvious allegiance to trump, and to republicans in general.  i guess they were admitting that when they dropped that bullshit "Fair and Balanced" motto.

The crying little girl on the magazine's cover wasn't separated from her mom at the border. But 2,300 other children were.
