An article can be tinged with bias just by using a single word with a noted connotation.
It kinda makes me think about all the times I read an article and understood the bias, but never did anything about it.
A blatant example that comes to mind is the "terror mosque". these days the talk of the nation is the "terror mosque" supposedly being built on Ground Zero. Fox 'news' network started calling the religious community center by this nickname, showing their fear fostering bias. Their facts were also cherry-picked because the community center is actually being built a block to a few blocks away.
Isn't it insane that the most watched news network is basically flinging dung at the Muslim populous? What people would do for ratings!
So like I said before, it makes me sad to think about the amount of people who watch this network and do not think twice about the bias.
