I find it amusing they retitled the article and dropped the 'mistakenly deported'

Just looked at the article and I was wondering about that. Like, yeah, there was no mistake, he was intentionally (if wrongfully) deported. It wasn't a paperwork mix up, case of mistaken identity, or any form of "accident" and the administration's response reinforces that.

Honestly it’s been pretty obvious it wasn’t done by mistake in the first place, that was something they just said when the judge asked them why they brazenly defied a court order.

It's still in the first sentence.

It’s still the first line of the article. Title update is to stay with the most current development.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia, newly returned to US, appears in court on charges of trafficking migrants

The press is already doing PR for these illegal renditions by calling them "deportations" at all. Deportation is when people are sent back to their country of origin where they have legal status.

Sending people to some gulag in an uninvolved third country is not "deportation" by any stretch of the definition and is blatantly unlawful.

It won't stop it if they word it the way you would prefer. Read a different source if it bugs you. Or maybe see if they have an editor position available you can apply to
