Media Bias

My favorite news source is NPR news because they give a more broad look at many issues, not just focusing in on who they want to focus on. For instance, it always amazes me how in every election the mainstream news gives more coverage to certain candidates, others who were running for president were barely heard of, if at all. Some of which I believe had some great ideas and plans for our country (such as Kucinich). However, unless you look at other non-mainstream news sources, many people won't even know who else is running for president. The media definitly shapes the campaign in who they give the most press time/coverage to, and I think that is very unfair.
