CBS News suffered an embarrassing fact-check against itself in the wake of the vice presidential debate.

The broadcaster, responsible for hosting the debate between Tim Walz and J.D. Vance, disputed the Ohio Sen.’s claim that Vice President Kamala Harris “became the appointed border czar.”

“Vice President Kamala Harris was not asked to be the administration’s “border czar” or to oversee immigration policy and enforcement at the U.S.-Mexico border,” the CBS claimed following the debate. “That has mainly been the responsibility of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and his department, which oversees the country’s main three immigration agencies, including Customs and Border Protection.”

“In reality, the only role close to that of a ‘border czar’ under the Biden administration was held for only a few months by Roberta Jacobson, a longtime diplomat who served as coordinator for the Southwest border until April 2021,” CBS added.

However, social media users soon discovered a CBS News article from March 2021 titled, “Harris to lead administration’s efforts to stem migration at border.”

The largely features comments by President Joe Biden regarding Harris’ qualifications to “stem the migration to our southern border” – effectively confirming Vance’s argument at Tuesday night’s debate.

CBS is not the first mainstream media outlet to be fact-checked by its own reporting, with the Seattle Times, CNN, and Associated Press suffering the same fate so far this election campaign when they also erroneously denied that Harris was ever Border Czar.
