Here's an interesting contrast ... media bias shown quite clearly as practiced two very different ways in two very different cultures:
SAUDI ARABIA
Very old-syle with scissors, black markers and the works.
AMERICAN NEWS MEDIA
Bias by careful word selection as prescribed in the AP style manual.
It seems pretty obvious that the way the news media does it is by far worse than that described in Saudi Arabia. It is much easier to fight what you can see especially when the clumsy tools used are in themselves reminders of what is being censored. Subtle rewording, as demonstrated in the AP example, can be virtually invisible and do far greater damage.
