Default Re: What information do you believe is factual?

When bias is alleged, it almost always involves exclusion of what is known and not reported.

Good point. I guess you could also include what is not known but not even sought out. One example of info. that is horribly underresearched by the western media (and therefore a major source of bias) is why so many people in so many countries want to see Israel wiped off the map.

Objective journalism is not about making knee-jerk dismissals of this phenomenon but rather conducting interviews, adding historical perspective, and otherwise presenting it as the legitimate, significant issue it is.
