The hypocritical nature of reaction to political bias
Monday, June 4, 2018Liberals in the United States decry the bias of Fox News, while conservatives decry the bias of the New York Times. But new research suggest that partisans do not care much about political neutrality.
The study, published in PLOS One, found that partisan mostly cared about political bias that harmed their own side.
The research:

Salon Politics:
Realizing
the Impossible is a wonderful, passionately and intelligently compiled
collection of art and writing with strong political messages. An
anti-authoritarian, anti-capitalist persuasion carries from cover to
cover and is expressed throughout. Through their work, the featured
artists reveal messages and statements and resistance to globalization,
state authority and oppression. Interwoven into their social critiques
is a common belief that a new world is necessary.
The collection
contains three sections: "In Print," "Moving Images and Interventions"
and "Theories." Within each of these sections are essays, interviews and
art that focus on specific events and people ranging from the Haymarket
Riot, radical puppetry, queer art and the politics of space and land
reclamation.
