cherry-pickers
Bucket trucks essentially
Cherry-pickers are people who selectively choose only the evidence, facts, or examples that support their position while ignoring contradictory ones: The report was compiled by cherry-pickers who ignored inconvenient data.
The term comes from the practice of picking only the ripest cherries from a tree.
Cherry-pickers are also elevated platforms mounted on vehicles, used for reaching high places like power lines or tree branches.
