For your entertainment and education I have taken the time to compare and contrast how various news outlets reported on his speech.

I was amused to see how differently his speech was described. It was as if the media outlets watched completely different speeches. Just look at how they described the tone.

**Tone:**

> a **sober,** scripted speech \[...\]  
>  
> reading from the teleprompter in a somewhat **subdued** manner.  
>  
> CBS News  

> President Trump, in a **fiery address** Tuesday before the [U.N. General Assembly](https://www.foxnews.com/category/world/united-nations?ref=goodoil.news)  
>  
> Fox News  
>  

**On the main topic of his speech:**

> addressed the United Nations General Assembly today and laid a **staunchly nationalist platform.**  
>  
> CNN

> **tore into open-border activists** for pushing what he described as an “evil” agenda under the “cloak” of social justice, while **warning Iran** to abandon its confrontational course and delivering arguably his most **robust defense** yet of his **nationalist philosophy.**  
>  
> Fox News

> **he focused** more on **criticizing other nations** that he believes treat the U.S. unfairly than on uniting nations around principles of democracy and humanity.  
>  
> CBS News  

**On the topics covered by his speech:**

> The president hit on each of his favorite themes — **unfair trade, imbalanced defense spending, illegal immigration, and socialism**   
>  
> CBS News

> He took **shots at China** during his UN address today, accusing the nation of breaking promises to the international community to “adopt promised reforms.” Trump also **took a shot at Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro** in his speech, calling him a “dictator” and a “Cuban puppet.” **He called Iran’s regime one of the “greatest security threats facing peace-loving nations”** and urged nations not to “subsidize Iran’s bloodlust.”  
>  
> CNN

> He delivered the broadside as part of a message promoting **border security**, in the U.S. and around the world. This dovetailed with a **broader theme of railing against open borders and “globalists,”** \[…\]

> the message was that of a muscular nationalism \[…\] As part of his speech, he later ripped into **social media giants, media groups and academics** — whom he accused of being part of a “permanent political class” that sought to undermine the will of the people.  
>  
> Fox News
