Media Bias Example

So this is the headline from Yahoo:



Yahoo actually modifies it from the AP, which read "GOP senators: Can Kagan be impartial judge?"

Now if there was a Republican President and Kagan was a conservative, the headline would read perhaps:

1. Kagan faces tough questions of controversial stances.
2. Does Kagan's positions lack compassion?
3. Many Senators uneasy about Kagan's ability to be impartial
