Media Accused of Political Bias in Terrorism Coverage
Original: BROADCAST BIAS: From FlyDubai to Benghazi, the media struggle to keep politics out of terrorism
Fox News argues that coverage of terrorist attacks, from the FlyDubai crash to the Benghazi attack, shows media outlets letting political considerations shape how they report terrorism. The piece claims some incidents receive heavy coverage while others are downplayed depending on the political narrative involved, accusing broadcasters of inconsistency in labeling attacks.
Why now: Debate over whether mainstream media apply double standards when covering attacks depending on the perpetrators or victims.
