Thanks for taking the time to read and respond to my essay. Recently, I discovered a news aggregator that compares how stories are covered by left, right, and center leaning news outlets. Same stories, different takes. It also has a “blind spot” section that shows which stories are being ignored or underreported by news outlets. I need to look into it more carefully, but this may be a way to get past the bias you mention. In the meantime, we have our artists, drunk or sober, to tell us what’s going on. Thanks again for your interest and support.
