Guns or mental health crisis? Narratives over Minneapolis shooting: Bias Breakdown
In episode 35 of Bias Breakdown, we explore how media coverage of the Minneapolis Catholic school shooting split along partisan lines. Left-leaning outlets focused on gun laws, while right-leaning networks emphasized mental health and the shooter’s identity. We examine examples of media framing, bias by omission, and flawed logic, and look at polling showing Americans are nearly evenly divided on the causes of school shootings.
