BIASED REPORTING
Biased Media Coverage of March for Life
NBC made its bias clear in the way it covered two recent Washington demonstrations. Last Saturday, NBC described protesters at an anti-war rally as a mainstream collection of "grandparents," "students," "soccer moms," and even "Republicans." In truth, it was mainly a compilation of radical groups. But for yesterday's March for Life, NBC sent a reporter to Buffalo, N.Y., to interview "fans" of killing abortionists.
Tim Graham, with the Media Research Center, said it's just more evidence of bias. "It really is amazing that on one side we can try to make the fringe mainstream and on the other side you have what is more and more a pro-life mainstream being portrayed as the fringe," Graham said. The March for Life drew an estimated crowd of 100,000.
