Media bias doesn’t always undermine the legitimacy

Gauging Legitimacy & Bias What criteria did you apply to choose your source? What is the bias? (Neutral, commending, criticizing, promoting, etc.) Is there a political bias? How can you tell? Is there a bias based on perspective (objective or partial)?

How will we choose “legitimate sources”? We will exchange “legitimate” with “credible” Does the source have a reputation as a reliable source? (NY Times) What is the authority of the writer, speaker? (Editorial by Collin Powell) Does the source follow the ethics of journalism? (Washington Post vs. Blog) Who is the sponsoring organization? (UC Berkeley)

Is this photograph evidence that Joe Biden is considering becoming a candidate for president?

The more credible the source, the more transparent is the bias

If “credible” sources are produced by journalists… We will examine bias through professional frames

Frames that structure what journalists see and how they present it. Commercial Bias Temporal Bias Visual Bias Bad News Bias Narrative Bias Status Quo Bias Fairness Bias Expediency Bias Glory Bias

Why is this less-likely to be published?
