Practice Reading: Fill in the Blanks (Dropdown) ID: #5458 Bias 2
Instructions
One  of  the  questions  we  need  to  ask  ourselves  is:  How  much  of  the  news  is  biased?  Can  we  recognise  bias?  The  fact  is,  despite  the  journalistic  ideal  of  'objectivity',  every  news  story  is    by  the  attitudes  and  background  of  its  interviewers,  writers,  journalists,  photographers  and  editors.  That  is  not  to  say  that  all  bias  is  ,  but  it  does  exist.
So  how  can  we,  as  readers  or  viewers,  determine  bias?  Well,  in  the  case  of  newspapers,  it  manifests  itself  in  a  number  of  ways,  such  as  what  events    for  inclusion  or  omission.  The    of  the  article,  meaning  its  proximity  to  the  front  or  back  pages,  is  significant.  The  use  of  headlines,  photographs  and  language  are  further  examples.
