David Corn: "This is the problem. The story - the news - is the falsehoods, not the invoking."

This is the problem. The Times story in the third graph does say Trump's speech was "riddled with falsehoods." But the headline makes it seem he was addressing a real crisis. The quote marks don't change that. The story--the news-- is the falsehoods, not the invoking.
