A catastrophic failure of U.S. journalism and politics is that something like Biden's 10-year, $3.5 trillion infrastructure bill is not called a $350 billion annual bill… but the Pentagon's budget, which will exceed $7.5 trillion over a decade, is called a $750 billion annual bill. — Northwestern University Journalism Professor Steven Thrasher

That isn't a failure of U.S. journalism. That is another failure of the Democratic Party, and the Biden administration. U.S. journalism isn't required to make bills seem more attractive to the public. They aren't the Dem's propaganda organs.
The Dems wanted to show how much money they were putting into reconstruction. They are the ones who keep talking about $3.5T. The press are just reporting what the Dems are saying.
