[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 265311, member: 27"] Oh, this is rampant, I'm afraid. It would not be as irritating if these people would just admit they're biased and are injecting their opinions into their reporting (that they're advocates rather than journalists), but they continue to maintain this rather obvious lie that they're objective reporters who have no opinions on the subject they're reporting on. It becomes quite obvious which 'side' they're on if you know what to listen for, but unfortunately they don't teach critical thinking in schools as much as they ought to. A disturbing number of people just take things reported on biased news outlets as the Gospel since they [I]want to believe[/I] it's true. In the situation you mention above, the minute it became clear that they were assigning an incorrect motive to the reasons for the crime, they did not correct the record---they simply stopped covering it. If the story/situation can't be used to push their narrative, it will barely get covered, if at all. And they will never admit they might have been wrong. [/QUOTE]
