Comparing Fox News and CNN

For my news story comparisons, I looked at reports that claim to be the "reality" of the migrants in the Caravan heading to the US. One was from Fox News, a video report, called "Breaking Down the Facts about The Caravan". The other was CNN, also a video report, called "Cuomo reveals desperate reality in the migrant camp". Already you can see the difference between the stories from their titles, one claiming to be debunking the media's lies and the other using words like "desperate" to use Pathos. Watching both of these it felt like they were two different events. The Fox News video was with one reporter from Fox News interviewing someone possed as the expert on the subject when he was just using inferences he made by looking at video reports. In the CNN report, they were down among the migrants in a camp showing the squalor they were living in and interviewing little children. This kind of struck me because it seemed weird that they had to use pathos to report on something, trying to make you feel bad. However, the Fox News report used Ethos by making the guy being interviewed seem like the expert. Watching these I really don't know what is true or what is exaggerations.
