The first news outlet that was analyzed was CBS News. The article was specifically about Donald Trump calling for a “total and complete shutdown” regarding Muslims entering the country. Based on the way the article is presented, the news reporters are anti-Trump, but at the same time they use quotes and other articles to demonstrate this viewpoint. According to the reporters of CBS, “Trump’s statement …show more content…

The first biased statement that was noticed was the title of the article, stating, “Trump 's Muslim move: Why the media condemnation probably helps him (again), which obviously discredits Trump and his supporters. Fox News reporters and producers are obviously very anti-Trump and are discrediting him left and right. In the article, it is claimed that Trump “has been push[ing] the envelope beyond what anyone had imagined, igniting a firestorm, bringing condemnation from much of the media and political establishment, enabling him to dominate the campaign for yet another week,” and yet he still rises in the polls. On the morning of December 8th, Trump reportedly called several morning shows, battling it out to prove his point and not budging an inch. Although Fox News used quotes from Trump, his statements, and his interviews, they often picked out statements either discrediting Trump 's plans, or picked out statements of Trump discrediting other governmental officials.

  • Summary Of Bias By Bernard Goldberg

    721 Words  | 3 Pages

    The book Bias written by Bernard Goldberg explains how the liberal media distorts actual news and as a result impacts society negatively.

This is why journalist can bash on a certain side or cheer the other side and wont fear about what will happen. Goldberg views Conservative news as evil and liberal media as right.
