About this listen

In episode 24 of Bias Breakdown, we dive into how the media labels demonstrations when they take a violent turn. Protest or riot — and why does that word choice matter? Left- and right-leaning media are fighting for control of the narrative after crowds took to the streets of Los Angeles to push back against arrests made by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. We break down the diverging coverage and examine how selective language choices reflect deeper political biases in the press.
