Weekly Example of Media Bias - January 20, 2016
1. A female US Navy sailor held captive by Iran last week was forced to wear a headscarf during her 16 hours in captivity, according to American experts after photos were released of the encounter. What type of bias did the media display by not reporting this fact?
2. Why do you think ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, The NY Times, Washington Post...did not mention the fact that a US servicewoman was forced by Iran to wear a hijab?
3. Why do you think this was reported by the media (and by the Obama administration) as a "nothing to see here" story?
