It's Twitter Tweeting Time

This is a rather short article, but can be viewed in an opinion pushing light. To see the opinion of this article, you have to take into account the underlying assumption that the reporter Brian Fung assumes the audience is aware that Trump isn't the most liked person ever - especially his tweets.

The headline is:

Twitter explains why it won’t take down Trump’s North Korea tweet

The dilemma with this headline is that it infers that Twitter should take down Trump's tweet. Instead of a more objective headline like, "Will Twitter take down Trump's North Korea tweet," This brings the reader in assuming they should agree with the fact that Twitter should be taking down his tweet and therefore pursuing the belief his tweet was inappropriate (even though it was).

Additionally, Brain doesn't add any supportive quotes on the issue which could potentially sway audiences to believe that everyone sees Trumps tweeting as a negative action. Fairly though, Fung doesn't add in any personal commentary and merely reports referenceable points.
