Epstein emails expose media political bias: Choose sources carefully
The latest dump of emails tied to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein has triggered a wave of media coverage favoring one side of the ideological aisle over another, and this episode of Bias Breakdown examines how outlets with a political left and right lean framed the same information in sharply different ways.
From headlines highlighting Epstein’s ties to President Trump to reports highlighting the White House’s pushback, the story became an example of how narrative framing and selective emphasis can shape public perception depending on an outlet’s political bias.
With analysis from AllSides Editor-in-Chief Henry A. Brechter, the episode breaks down common forms of media bias on display, including slant, spin, viewpoint placement and omission across the news spectrum’s most prominent organizations. Brechter explains how audience expectations often drive these partisan patterns.
