Ok, let me just throw out one event for an example:
The Israeli Barrier Wall.

The Haaretz reports that the wall is partway complete, and that terrorist events (to include attempted bombings, people caught halfway into the act, actual bombings, etc.) are dramatically down in the areas covered by the wall. Mortar fire is still problematic, but even that is now required to be more accurate to do real damage. The Israeli people are finally seeing something vaguely resembling peace.

Al-Jazeera writes a blazing shower of nasty-flames about "Sharon's Illegal Apartheid Land-Grab Wall," and how it has further divided the region, destroyed the Arab way of life, and infuriated the Palestinians and the international Arab community. The blood of the Israelis will run in the streets, blah blah blah.

NYT does a photodocumentary (still posted) on the horror of the wall, and how terrible it is for the poor innocent Palestinians. Pictures of small children playing in front of the wall, destitute mothers sobbing about how their husbands can't get to work because of the wall, etc. NYT further gives front page coverage to the UN resolution demanding the destruction of the wall, though it gave no coverage to the positive aspects of the wall.


Ok, so what's truth? Who's biased, and how?
