Did They Leave Out the Illegal Part?

This from Fox News makes me wonder ….  (emphasis is mine)

WASHINGTON â€”  Whites are now in the minority in nearly one in 10 U.S. counties. And that increased diversity, fueled by [illegal (?)] immigration and higher birth rates among blacks and Hispanics, is straining race relations and sparking a backlash against [illegal (?)] immigrants in many  communities.

“There’s some culture shock,” said Mark Mather of the Population Reference Bureau, a Washington-based research agency. “But I think there is a momentum building, and it is going to continue.”

My point is that a lot of news outlets interchange, or completely ignore, illegal aliens with immigrates, and Fox News is no different.

This should have been broken down by “legal” immigrants, “legal” citizens and “illegals”.  The backlash noted above is NOT against “legal immigration” it’s against illegals and the people who make the mistake of not noting there is a HUGE difference.
