only I can be biased, not you

Everyone is upset about this journalist Nir Arad of Chanel 12 who showed his bias in a recent report talking about the most recent polls. He showed clear personal bias against Netanyahu and Ben Gvir.


Everyone everywhere has some bias, and every news station, every news reporter, every newspaper, has some sort of bias. It all comes out in the general tone of their reporting and commentary, but it shouldn't be so blatant.

I think it is fair for the politicians and people to criticize this recent report, but I find it funny that other reporters are criticizing it. As much as every newspaper in the world has some bias on being Left or Right, Liberal or Conservative, supporting this or that politician, here in Israel the reporters are regularly explicit about who they support. Arel Segal criticized Arad loudly -0 Segal himself has been a big Netanyahu supporter for years. it is only bad to have a bias when it is a bias against the politician you like? The Haredi reporters all have clear and explicit biases for their favorite politicians that they regularly talk about. Riklin is a massive Netanyahu supporter, as is Yinon Magal. And then there are others that support Lapid or Gantz. 

People can criticize but seeing other biased journalists criticizing Arad and Channel 12 makes me laugh.
