Hartford Courant (Sunday)

Word choice leaves audience unsure

-

In The Hartford Couran’ts lead story on Thursday, Sept. 26, there was was an interestin­g juxtaposit­ion of the word “pushed,” which appeared in both the headline and the photo caption.

The headline read: In “Memo: Trump Pushed Ukraine.”

Then, in the accompanyi­ng photo, the caption read: “Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky told reporters on Wednesday that ‘nobody pushed me.’”

So, with this discrepanc­y, whom are Americans to believe?
