I'm a little astounded that the notion of media bias is getting so much attention. All media is biased - its just the direction of bias that differs.
New policies introduced with the goal of stamping out bias is naive to say the least - a waste of taxpayer money on the alter of bureaucracy sounds more like it!
For the interested - some completely unbiased opinions here, here & here. |

The media can't help but be biased. We all come with our own linguistic baggage, precepts, views of the world, etc. To get a measured view read them all, or follow your conscience.
I prefer the latter view.
