Can You Spot the Media Bias? | MSNBC, Fox News | Watch Examples and Add Comments

I recently put on a “can you spot the bias?” exercise during a conference and was pleased to see participants point out all sorts of things.  From the graphics used on the screen to the amount of time given to candidates to adjectives that some felt went too far, participants uncovered all sorts of problems.

What do you spot? Add to the comments below.

The funny thing about bias is when asked to look for bias, you'll be biased to find more. I am glad that at least people are acknowledging the media bias.

News 📰 is something we consume. Therefore, just as with nutrition labels and movie ratings, I believe we need mandated posted ratings on commercial news sources so we know what we’re consuming. One part for how factual they are and whether sources are checked; another part for how left, right or neutral they are politically.
I attribute a lot of our problems at present (division, unrest) to people being in media bubbles that confirm their biases. The media can be very manipulative.
For example, 40% of American households watch Fox News. Media Bias Fact Check rates them as strongly Right-Biased due to editorial positions and story selection that favors the right. They also rate them Mixed factually and borderline Questionable based on poor sourcing and the spreading of conspiracy theories.
MBFC rates CNN left biased overall based on editorial positions that consistently favor the left, while straight news reporting falls left-center through bias by omission. They also rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to several failed fact checks by TV hosts. However, news reporting on the website tends to be properly sourced with minimal failed fact checks.
MBFC rates MSNBC Left Biased based on story selection that consistently favors the establishment left. They also rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to news hosts and the website producing 3 pants on fire claims.

Media Bias: Why is the mainstream media biased? As professionals, it's important to cover news objectively without batting for either side. Let's deliver the news that is important to the American 🇺🇸 people. #MediaBias #ObjectiveNews #AmericanPeople

Only need to know their bias and reliability scores. You’re never gonna get a clean slate. But if you were playing the percentages for sure you want to know how biased the news reporting organization is and how reliable they are. What’s the arbiter of that. Well that can be debated. Perhaps the AP? But that’s right they’re biased as well. SMH

#MediaBias is a hot topic these days, and this post sheds light on the issue. The mainstream media is accused of trying to provide positive coverage for Sleepy 😴 Joe while showing negative coverage of @realDonaldTrump. As journalists, it's crucial to stop 🛑 batting for either side and do our jobs. Let's strive for unbiased reporting and leave personal biases at the door.

#Facts: These News Network especially ones like @MSNBC aka MSDNC shouldn’t be taking sides when it comes to supporting any party. The News Outlets should be reporting news for the American 🇺🇸 people and not be shielding and protecting @POTUS Sleepy 😴 Joe and the Establishment.
