Ground News4:46-6:19
Every reporter gets the same number, 37.5 billion. But if you use this show's sponsor, Ground News, like I do, you get to see in one place what happens next, how they frame the story. One outlet, like the Associated Press, which Ground News calls left-leaning, but with high factuality, portrays it as a devastating admission. With the headline, Hegseth estimates Iran war has cost $37.5 billion as he defends funding requests at fiery hearing. While Newsweek, which Ground News describes as right-leaning with mixed factuality, doesn't even include the price tag in the headline. It reads, Pete Hegseth gives Senate new price tag for Iran war. They instead frame it as a necessary price of national security. Same fact, completely different story. And as you all know, in my line of work, understanding the media is just as important as understanding the news. That's why I check Ground News before I publish.
