But as I said, broadcast media has a finite time in which it can present stories

It presented and explained the EO; it is now presenting and explaining the reaction to it. There is absolutely nothing unusual about that and you don't have to "really search" for it at all. Just google 'Trump executive order immigration' and it is all there in great detail for those who are genuinely interested in understanding the issues. It is not hidden.

As for social media, what do you expect? It is a soundbite channel. But also, it entirely depends on who you follow. If it is mainstream media, then the tweets will reflect their articles and editorial view... which (again) have explained the EO perfectly clearly.

I have no idea why you are trying to promote the idea that there is an absence of readily accessible information on this topic. It is a total red herring and only serves to feed the hard right narrative that Trump is in some way misunderstood and misrepresented by the media. A view he is entirely determined to cultivate, a view which you and others appear to lap up and support... much to his delight I would imagine.
