      If they’re using a false term but quoting someone they should use quotes:

      Xi warned Biden during summit that Beijing will “reunify” Taiwan with China

        Iit should always be apparent there is editorialization happening tho. Kinda like [sic] -> that is obviously the author clarifying they are not misquoting or misspelling

        What you’ve written is still editorialising. The way it’s written is also clear who was making the statement, Xi was. In the eyes of China it is reunifying, so no matter one’s opinion, it is their stated opinion, so seems weird to put “reunfiy” in quotations when the rest isn’t.

      report what is true and verifiable

      if they did that there wouldnt be much news, a lot fewer journalists, less jobs overall, and much less advertising revenue.

      never gonna happen
