While two members of the AllSides team who lean right argued this was a clear-cut case of media bias — journalists committing bias by omission and not treating politicians the same way when they make remarks people label as racist — one team member on the left argued that in the case of the LA council, party affiliation is not necessarily relevant to the story. His stubborn refusal to do what everyone else knows is necessary is deepening the wound he has inflicted on Los Angeles. They stated, “It seems to me that the main difference here is that the Republican is 1) a US Senate candidate, 2) partisan politics is prevalent in the Senate, 3) his comments were made at a Republican campaign event, and 4) comments were about Democrats.

Meanwhile 5) city councils are less driven by national partisanship 6) the racist LA comments were regarding redistricting and other local issues, rather than subjects of partisan R-D debate.” “Just because something is ‘political’ doesn&amp;#39;t mean it&amp;#39;s ‘partisan.” He said that he does recalled talking to Cedillo as they left the meeting and telling him that he was “shocked by the words that came out of Martinez. According to CBS Los Angeles, protestors calling for de Le&#243;n&#39;s resignation were gathered outside of his Eagle Rock home for four days before being moved.’ The ‘politics’ in the LA case was between Hispanic officials and black citizens of the area, whereas the Senate candidate was explicitly trying to convince a Republican audience not to vote for Democrats.” Some forms of bias are objective — we can easily see when reporters use qualifying adjectives or sensational words.
