Uber Drive Death in PA - Example of Biased Emphasis in Media

Recommended Posts

These stories "might be emphasized by Fox News".  However, they will be highly emphasized on white supremacist websites.   However, the latter is sad, because such a person, as in this article, doesn't represent all African-Americans.   Nonetheless, in the eyes of many, it does.  

Anyway, the drawback of truly "emphasizing" these stories is that it, as noted, demonizes a particular group.  It's like overseas where one American soldier rapes someone and then the place goes up in protests - and every American gets a dirty look.

Well, what is the price of a truly unbiased media?   Would we even be willing to live in such a hateful society?  Would it be hateful?
