Media Bias: What Is It and Why Does It Matter? - eBook 

Media bias can take many different forms. It can be seen in stories that favor one side over another. It can be seen in story placement. It can even be seen in whether a story gets covered at all. This book examines what media bias looks like, the damage it can do, and the efforts of news organizations to both ensure fairness and counter sometimes-exaggerated claims of bias by politicians.
