no problem are you having a hard time deciding or just want to know what the news is saying according to the channel you tune into?

I'm trying to figure out how we all seem to have different perceptions of what the media is reporting and whether we think they are slanted toward one side or the other, and also what people are actually considering "the media."

the important phrase is "perceived bias". people see what they want to see - even when no objective bias exists.

thanks for the definition but i would like to know how you prove bias exists.

There is a poster on another board with the following quote for her Siggy:

 


 


I disagree with you, but I'm pretty sure

"Does that help a little? Nice to have experience huh?"
FOX News! No slant from that source!

I work with doctors and many female docs cut back their hours when they have a baby, increasing back when the kids are older. They also work a reasonable schedule anyway. The doc I am working with now with a baby works 7 days in a row, 6-8 hours a day in the hospital and call from home for the rest of the time. They have a nanny so if she has to come in the baby is taken care of. Then she is off for 2 straight weeks. I don't know any lawyers. I don't know any military, but if I met someone who had a baby, then 3 months later enlisted and tried to get deployed within a month, I would wonder about her parenting too. Certainly we all make our lives and our families work in our own way. I think this hits me too close to home because I have an 11 month old. I returned to work when he was 3 months old. I work a combination of days and nights so I am only away from him 3 days every 2 weeks and it is still hard. My husband brings him in for lunch and I get up early to play with him before I go in. I still think returning to work led to him stopping breastfeeding sooner (7 months instead of 12 months as planned). My husband is a stay at home dad.


I know it must have been a hard decision for her, or at least I hope it was hard. This is an opportunity which wouldn't offer itself again, but I still can't get over her choosing a job which guarantees that she will be away from him a LOT.

No, actually that doesn't help in the least.
