    I did my own research and found nothing along the lines of what you’re saying, sorry. Unless you provide a news article source we have literally no idea what you’re talking about and none of us are convinced of what you’re saying.

      Just so we’re clear, you think news outlets don’t use the word “migrant” in place of “immigrant” when the subject(s) is question are known to be immigrants or trying to immigrate?

      A simple yes or no will suffice.

        I don’t know, never seen it but I have an open mind. The burden of proof is on the claimant, that is you. The default position is “I don’t know”, not yes or no. Your question, “yes or no” is known as a false dichotomy, a logical fallacy that is not convincing to me.

        I claim there is a teacup flying around Saturn. Do you believe there is a teacup around Saturn without evidence? If you answer “no” do you need prove it? What proof do you require from me to believe the claim?
