I think that news media
about politics are very objective and biased against opposing candidates. They will
tell you what you want to hear rather than the truthful information, but the
public needs to know the right information instead of someone’s biased
comments. Fox and MSNBC seem to be more biased and CNN is more objective.
Public talk radio is largely
dominated by conservatives because they are more popular. No liberal shows are
even close to the popularity of the top-rated conservative programs. Rush
Limbaugh is the best known conservative commentators. Liberals tried to use
talk radio but failed.
Yes, media objectivity is
important. The media has great power in a democracy. Most Americans get their
news from media rather than from other people or sources. Most journalist use
objective reporting which is more of a descriptive writing. It provides the
public with a view from the journalist’s mind.
