The Media - More bias at the Associated Press
I think we all know the media is biased in a certain way that's not exactly pro-America...
Warner Todd Houston describes another occurrence:
"The issue of illegal immigration has seemed to drift from the front pages of the news, of late, but the AP is not finished trying to advocate for law breakers everywhere, it seems. On April 25, the Associated Press posted a story that serves as a perfect example of how the wire service aims their reporting to support illegal immigration in the United States. In 'Arizona sheriff stirs furor with crackdown on illegals,' all the negative framing of the issue is used against Sheriff Joe Arpaio's efforts to curb illegal immigration and those who stand against him are constantly given the benefit of the doubt with neutral or positive language describing their actions. Additionally, whenever illegals are mentioned they are presented as victims, one 'afraid' immigrant even being quoted as calling our immigration officials 'the devil.'"
