Journalism Is Riddled With Bias, Errors, Narrative Setting and Pack Reporting

• • Barely a day passes anymore without one or more major corporate news outlets exposing their liberal bias.
  • What it really amounts to is the desire of news organizations to find facts to fit patterns they already have in mind.
  • Stressors do not relieve journalists of the burden to be accurate as well, and too often they fail in that responsibility.

“…In the Dallas suburb of Southlake this week, local elections made national news largely because of controversial left-wing attempts to impose critical race theory on public school students. While sounding benign on its face, critical race theory in schools is actually the indoctrination of children with the notion that people are either oppressed or oppressors, depending on the color of their skin.

After the election results were in, NBC News tweeted that the “opponents of anti-racism education” were the winners, adopting the language of the program’s proponents and making those who oppose it seem, well, pro–racism.

NBC favorably referred to critical race theory as a “school diversity plan” rejected by voters in the “wealthy Dallas-Fort Worth suburb,” making sure that readers understood that not only were these people pro-racism, they were also rich, thereby doubling their sins.

In the end, the opponents of critical race theory swept the elections, winning two school board seats, two city council seats, and the mayor’s office. The winning side in this “bitterly divided election,” as NBC put it, carried about 70% of the vote in each race. Only in the world of the mainstream news can a 40-point victory be described as representing a community that is “bitterly divided.”

That’s a lot of bias in one tweet…”
