media bias

"Of course, Al Jazeera has some overt prejudices. In covering the Israeli-Palestinian dispute, for example, it is clearly on the Palestinian side. Tear-jerking features about the sufferings of the Palestinians are not matched with equal coverage of the Israeli human terrain." Notice. American media don't have overt prejudices BECAUSE they are clearly on the Israeli side, and their tear-jerking features about the "sufferings" of the Israelis are not matched with equal coverage of the Palestinian human terrain.
