Mail headline about Bob Vylan was not misleading, regulator finds bit.ly/4oIf5ou even though he did not say the words in single quotes, it summarised what he said. If Mail had used double quotes that would have been different, maybe.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.
