AP's Lee Fails to Cite Kerry's Plea For Less Media Terrorism Coverage
In Bangladesh on Monday, Secretary of State John Kerry had a concern about media coverage of terrorism he felt he needed to communicate, namely that "the media would do us all a service if they didn’t cover it quite as much." That would be a great thing, apparently, because then "People wouldn’t know what’s going on." You can't make this stuff up.

Kerry Says Media Should Report Less on Terrorism, Nets Skip
It’s been quite the Tuesday on the bias by omission front for the “big three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC as along with ignoring an Associated Press story on over 70 mass graves in ISIS territory being discovered, the same broadcast network morning and evening newscasts also punted on Secretary of State John Kerry lecturing the media to not cover terrorism as frequently.

Daily Kos Writer: Media ‘Skewing Their Agenda to Undermine’ Hillary
The mainstream media’s campaign coverage is perverse, believes Laurence Lewis. The MSM should be explaining that Donald Trump is “the least fit nominee for president in living memory, if not all of American history,” but instead they’re attacking Hillary Clinton. In a piece pegged to the uproar over the Clinton Foundation pay-for-play story, Lewis complained, "The Clinton critics just can't…
¿De cuándo acá fue la neutralidad una opción para Jorge Ramos?
Latino
Si estos artículos tipo "cosas que dice Jorge Ramos" parecen repetitivos, es porque no hay precedente de un presentador nacional de noticias que publique sus opiniones (en plataforma multinacional) sobre un candidato presidencial, porque la prensa estáblishment ha colaborado con esta rotura con tradición de años, y porque es importante crear y preservar -conforme a la misión de MRC Latino- una…

In response to Donald Trump's charge that the Clintons set up a pay-for-play arrangement that granted big contributors access to Clinton while she was secretary of state, Hillary Clinton said, "My work as secretary of state was not influenced by any outside forces. I made policy decisions based on what I thought was…

Morning Joe's Mika Brzezinski: I Can't Be Objective About Trump
In what must be at least the twentieth media installment of "I can't be objective about this," MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski brought out her death stare as she reacted on Friday's Morning Joe show to Donald Trump's characterization of Hillary Clinton as a bigot — after several months during which Mrs. Clinton, her campaign and the press (but I repeat myself) have routinely called Trump or his rhetoric…
'I'm A Journalist Asking Questions': Ramos' Shield Becomes A Sword
Latino
As expected, Jorge Ramos went on CNN's Reliable Sources with Brian Stelter, justified his abandonment of neutrality with regard to Donald Trump, and evaded the question about MRC Founder Brent Bozell's call for his removal from Univision's anchor chair until after the election. The linguistic dodge that Ramos deployed in order to effectively to do so warrants additional analysis.
