2. What doesn't “CNN” or “ABC” report while the "others" do?
which one is corrcet?
Thanks in advance :D

MikeNewYork, thanks for your help :D
and two more questions
1. What does " twist things around" mean?
It means "distortion", doesn't it?
2. If I want to say " he twists my topic", is it make any sense or should I say "he distorts my topic"? Are the word "twist" and "distort" interchangeable?
Thanks again :)

I would say he "twists my words" or "twists my words around". I would say he distorts my meaning. But I would not interchange those. I would use them interchangeably for "argument". Does that make sense?
