What is unbiased news reporting?
Content: Obviously, personal bias will determine which facts are deemed most important or relevant, and when most people read a story, they will usually only read the first few paragraphs. A reporter who really wants to hide something buries an inconvenient fact at the bottom of the story. Even more subtle than that is the word choice a reporter uses. You may think you are using dry language, but the English language is very rich. Every word has its own connotations and shades of meaning - shack, hovel, hut, shanty, cabin - they all refer to a house a poor person might live in, but all conjure different images and emotions in a reader. What words you use in your story can paint a very different impression. And the editor also has a say by deciding what stories are actually news, again with issues relevance to the readers and where those stories will go in the paper. Want to hide a story? Bury it at the bottom of the page in the middle where most people are never going to bother to look. In short, if there is at all a human element in your news, there will be bias.
