It's interesting to note that the perception of the media by some of the public has reached such a low point that the term "journalist" is synonomous with bias. Historically, that title conferred an air of fairness and of even handedness. Journalism has it's own ethical guidelines with bias as one of it's greatest sins.
Too often today, I hear people shouting "bias" when what they really mean is "I don't agree with what you are saying!"
