Fox News opinion coverage argues that several broadcasters overstated controversy surrounding President Trump’s decision to switch military aircraft during a trip to Turkey. According to the article, the Secret Service advised the change because of an intelligence-related threat involving Iran, while journalists and some senior officials remained on Air Force One without being told Trump was elsewhere; the author says critics portrayed this security measure as a political scandal.

The piece contrasts this response with what it describes as more forgiving coverage of former President Barack Obama, and presents the episode as evidence of anti-Trump media bias. It cites reporting by The Washington Post as helping trigger the criticism, focusing on the use of a “decoy” aircraft and the press’s lack of advance notice.
