Today, news organizations are facing a crisis of trust, as many Americans believe that the news media intentionally ignores or misreports certain stories. The idea that American mass media outlets typically favor a particular point of view or perspective has contributed to sharp divisions in modern society. This book examines some of the most controversial issues related to media bias. The CONTEMPORARY ISSUES series is intended to give young readers a better understanding of major social issues today. Each book examines four key questions related to a controversial topic, with essays that detail the most commonly heard arguments on both sides of the discussion. The arguments contained within are supported by data from experts as well as nonpartisan reports, allowing the reader to make his or her own informed decision on the issue.
