And what are you going to do about it? Be upset? That sounds like a waste of your time, emotions, and intelligence.

Like I said in another response, I'm sure what happened is mostly true, but the framing is for political purposes. It's important to be critical of the purpose of an article (to inform? Or to influence?) so you can focus your energy on the politics that you have influence over.
