No liberal bias in the media?

People who just give a passing glance to the morning news to see if it is going to rain don't understand media bias. The bias is not just how the news is presented but also shown in the decision over what stories to pursue or emphasize. Here is a pop quiz from WIZBANG demonstrating how obvious the bias is if you compare stories:

Of late, I've been finding myself trying to guess which stories will garner media attention, and those which will slip through the cracks. And of late, I've been doing worse and worse.

So, here's an idea: I'm going to put out a News Director quiz. I'll describe two stories, and you get to guess which one is more news-worthy.

1. A) An ambassador nominee is accused of yelling at subordinates decades ago.
B) A former National Security Advisor pleads guilty to stealing and destroying highly classified documents from the National Archives.


Check out the rest.
