See the framing, then strip it
Here is how one outlet opened its report. Switch the framing off to see what is left.
Trump can begin deportations of Syrian, Haitian TPS holders, Supreme Court says The Supreme Court gave the Trump administration the green light to begin mass deportations of people who have been living and working legally in the United States for years, some even decades. By a 6-to-3 vote along ideological lines, the court's conservative majority ruled that the President has virtually unrestrained power to end the Temporary Protected Status program, known as TPS.
What every outlet agreed on
The Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration can end Temporary Protected Status for Haitians and Syrians. The decision was 6-3. The ruling means that affected individuals could face deportation.
NPR described the ruling as giving the president 'virtually unrestrained power' to end TPS and characterized the potential deportations as 'mass deportations' of people 'living and working legally in the United States for years, some even decades.' Fox News framed the rulings as 'two major immigration victories' and emphasized the administration's 'efforts to reduce asylum claims.' Most outlets focused on the TPS case; the New York Times led instead with a separate ruling on turning back asylum seekers at the border. Bloomberg and NPR specified approximately 350,000 Haitians and 7,000 Syrians affected; other outlets used vaguer language such as 'hundreds of thousands' or 'thousands.' NPR and the Washington Examiner described the vote as splitting 'along ideological lines'; other outlets noted the 6-3 vote without that characterization. The Hill described the ruling as stripping federal judges of 'authority to weigh in on many of the challengers' claims,' while Fox News said challengers 'could not receive judicial relief postponing the revocation.' We keep contested points like this in attributed form rather than stating them as settled fact.
