“The most commonly discussed types of bias occur when the (allegedly partisan) media support or attack a particular political party,[6] candidate,[7] or ideology. In 2000, D'Alessio and Allen studied three possible sources of media bias:[8] Coverage bias[6] when media choose to report only negative news about one party or ideology, Gatekeeping bias (also known as selectivity[9] or selection bias),[10] when stories are selected or deselected, sometimes on ideological grounds (see spike). It is sometimes also referred to as agenda bias, when the focus is on political actors and whether they are covered based on their preferred policy issues.[6][11] Statement bias (also known as tonality bias[6] or presentation bias),[10] when media coverage is slanted towards or against particular actors or issues. Based on the findings of Gentzkow, Shapiro, and Stone, they summarize two forms of media bias in the literature driven by different motivations: demand-driven bias and supply-driven bias. Demand-driven bias includes three factors: "reputation", "intrinsic utility from beliefs", and "delegation (or advice)".[12] Other common forms of political and non-political media bias include: Advertising bias, when stories are selected or slanted to please advertisers.[13] Concision bias, a tendency to report views that can be summarized succinctly, crowding out more unconventional views that take time to explain. Content bias, differential treatment of the parties in political conflicts, where biased news presents only one side of the conflict.[14] Corporate bias, when stories are selected or slanted to please corporate owners of media. Decision-making bias, means that the motivation, frame of mind, or beliefs of the journalists will have an impact on their writing. It is generally pejorative.[14] Distortion bias, when the fact or reality is distorted or fabricated in the news.[14] Mainstream bias, a tendency to report what everyone else is reporting, and to avoid stories that will offend anyone. Partisan bias, a tendency to report to serve particular political party leaning.[15] Sensationalism, bias in favor of the exceptional over the ordinary, giving the impression that rare events, such as airplane crashes, are more common than common events, such as automobile crashes. Structural bias, when an actor or issue receives more or less favorable coverage as a result of newsworthiness and media routines, not as the result of ideological decisions[16][17] (e.g. incumbency bonus). False balance, when an issue is presented as even-sided, despite disproportionate amounts of evidence. Undue weight, when a story is given much greater significance or portent than a neutral journalist or editor would give. Speculative content, when stories focus not on what has occurred, but primarily on what might occur, using words like "could", "might", or "what if", without labeling the article as analysis or opinion. False timeliness, implying that an event is a new event, and thus deriving notability, without addressing past events of the same kind. Ventriloquism, when experts or witnesses are quoted in a way that intentionally voices the author's own opinion. Demographic is also a common form of media bias, caused by factors such as gender, race, and social and economic status.[18]” For example, in some European countries, female politicians receive fewer mentions in the media than male politicians, due to gender bias in the media.[19] A matched-pair analysis of men and women in mostly American new sources showed that men received more news coverage than women of comparable age and occupation, in spite of the fact that women were more likely to be of "public interest" as indicated by Wikipedia page views.[20] Other forms of bias include reporting that favors or attacks a particular race, religion, gender, age, sexual orientation, ethnic group, or person.” -Wikipedia. I am truly avoiding all of these media biases and media confirmation biases.” -Antonio Myers.
