Product DescriptionMore Books by Bernard Goldberg (Author)Run a Quick Search on "Bias" by Bernard Goldberg to Browse Related Products:Browse more products related to "Bias"Browse more products related to "Bernard Goldberg"Review"When Goldberg is less polemical and gets down to specifics -- such as the media's tendency to identify conservatives as conservatives but not liberals as liberals--some of his charges have the ring of truth." "Even among those who reject that premise, or some of the ad hominem bitterness on display here, BIAS should be taken seriously." "Bernard Goldberg's memoir-exposT-essay is a very revealing portrait of the television side of the news. It's a good read, and Goldberg is a good storyteller." Publisher's noteIn his nearly thirty years at CBS News, Emmy Award winner Bernard Goldberg earned a reputation as one of the preeminent reporters in the television news business. When he looked at his own industry, however, he saw that the media far too often ignored their primary mission: to provide objective, disinterested reporting. Again and again he saw that the news slanted to the left. For years, Goldberg appealed to reporters, producers, and network executives for more balanced reporting, but no one listened. The liberal bias continued. Now, breaking ranks and naming names, he reveals a corporate news culture in which the closed-mindedness is breathtaking and in which entertainment wins over hard news every time. AnnotationAn Emmy Award-winning CBS broadcast journalist turns his analytic eye on his own industry in this investigation of broadcast news. Here he suggests that television news is biased toward the political left. If You Enjoy "Bias (Paperback)", May We Also Recommend:
