CHART: Press shows bias, too

| February 22, 2019 12:00 AM

My first reaction upon seeing the chart “Blaze through the maze of media bias” on Sunday’s front page, was to think; finally, someone is going to set everyone straight about all this “fake news” craze; after all the Coeur d’Alene Press is fair and unbiased? But after examining the content of the article and front-page graphic embraced by Mr. Patrick it appears that the Coeur d’Alene Press has itself fallen prey to fake news.

There can be no doubt in the mines of fare minded and informed readers that Ms. Otero and her liberal organization have slanted this article and has become a proponent of “fake news.” After all, who in their right mind would think of CNN just slightly left of neutral? Let’s be honest by embracing this kind of nonsense the Coeur d’Alene Press has established themselves in among an ever increasing news outlets that have become America’s Achilles’ heel.
