Media Bias? What Media Bias

The Other McCain brings us a story about a predator meeting justice. Why Media Bias Matters

Say hello to Noah Madrano and, while you’re at it, go ahead and say good-bye, because it’s highly unlikely you’re ever going to see him unless somehow you get sentenced to federal prison, where he’s going to be serving a 50-year sentence for “his heinous crimes.”

Noah Madrano has a particular target of his affections. He was sentenced for kidnapping and doing bad things to a Canadian child.

So where does the media bias come in?

Now here’s where the media bias angle comes in. Because of Andy Ngo, you and I know that KBOO gave airtime to this predatory child rapist, who was not exactly secretive about his pedophilia. But guess what? In the Oregonian‘s article about Madrano being sentenced to prison, you’ll have to read down to the 28th paragraph before the reporter mentions Madrano’s association with KBOO radio. Many other media accounts don’t even mention Madrano’s connection to the “listener-supported, community radio station.”

Now substitute a conservative news outlet for KBOO, and imagine how the media would react, and what would be on news and for how long.
