bias

Several recent stories on Fox, Breitbart, and here on The Duran all address the increasingly obvious bias of the mainstream media with regard to news reporting.

A recent media study based on an analysis of 50 years of data found that major U.S. newspapers have provided consistently skewed, pro-Israel reporting on Israel-Palestine.
The study, conducted by 416Labs, a Toronto-based consulting and research firm, is the largest of its kind.

One of the hottest news stories in the American press has been that over the border wall, proposed by President Trump during his campaign, and now resting at the center of a debate that has about one-quarter of the US governmental services in a state of shutdown. We have observed fiery, passionate, and even disgusting levels of rancor and bitterness in the political rhetoric concerning the wall. This debate goes on in the news media, and many of the Americans who watch and listen to this take on the fire of these arguments to even more passionate levels.

This episode explores the MSM freak out over the Trump/Putin summit in Helsinki, a look back to the origin moment of the reincarnated McCarthyism imposed upon the USA by the MSM, a follow up to the talk on a giant Hollywood turd called “The First Purge”, the #WalkAway hashtag being subverted by the MSM to be a “Russia Did It” hashtag, American College/University systems turning youth into literal communists, tolerant Liberals who throw feces at people who disagree with their open border desires and much more.

Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-South Carolina), unloaded on his Democrat counterpart California Representative Adam Schiff on Thursday. He essentially called the Democrat congressman a liar and a fraud, stating multiple scenarios in which this appears to be the case.

The Students for Fair Admissions filed a lawsuit against Harvard University alleging discrimination. Asians have a tendency to have high scores in grades, tests and extracurriculars, but Harvard routinely rated them lower on soft categories like positive personality, likability, kindness, etc. [...]

The term ‘media bias’ does not do justice to the western corporate media’s relationship with Israel and Palestine. The relationship is, indeed, far more profound than mere partiality. It is not ignorance, either. It is a calculated and long-term campaign, aimed at guarding Israel and demonizing Palestinians.
The current disgraceful coverage of Gaza’s popular protests indicates that the media’s position aims at suppressing the truth on Palestine, at any cost and by any means.

It is easy for us as news writers to live in a bubble. That bubble is created in part by our own personal perspectives on our topics, (sometimes these perspectives escalate to the points of view we call biases).

Timothy Dolan is the Roman Catholic Archbishop (and Cardinal) who oversees the Roman Church in New York City. He has served there in this post since 2009, and his total time of official service to the Roman Catholic Church goes all the back at least as far as the time of his ordination to the priesthood in 1976. In his time of service he has seen many changes in the United States, both in terms of its social and religious attitudes and the stance of its political parties.

Please do not misunderstand. My personal regard for Fox News is actually the highest among American mainstream media outlets. To their great credit, they have been very fair to candidate and now President Donald Trump, and they usually demonstrate a good level of proficiency in outlining the news from a conservative point of view, as long as it is regarding domestic policy.
