Bias

Liberals claim there is no media bias, unless they're talking about FOX of course, in which case they scream constantly about the perceived bias. The favorite tool of the lefty media -- and the most insidious form of bias -- is the manipulation of perception via withholding pertinent information, otherwise known as a lie of omission. Here's an example:

Wal-Mart, the country's largest retailer, is eliminating health benefits for about 30,000 employees to control its rising healthcare costs.

The cut applies to part-timers who work fewer than 30 hours a week, Wal-Mart said Tuesday. It impacts 2% of the company's U.S. workforce.

More of Wal-Mart's employees signed up for health benefits this year than the company expected, which boosted the company's costs.

Obamacare requires everyone to have coverage, which has prompted people to compare plans available to them at work with plans offered on government exchanges. The cheapest and most popular Wal-Mart plan currently costs employees as little as $18.40 per paycheck. (That's going up to $21.90 next year.)

"This year, the expenses were significant and led us to"--

WHOA WHOA WHOA! Stop the bias train there, CNN. You note that Wal-Mart insurance costs a certain amount and that it's going up next year -- thereby implying that fewer people will be able to afford it -- but then quickly duck behind a diverting link and move right on to quoting Wal-Mart about their increased costs. But the pertinent point here is this: What does the comparable plan cost on an Obamacare exchange?

Oh, right; you don't want to talk about that, do you?

Journalistic integrity? What's that?
