This is a controversial question considering that media outlets are highly

commercialised nowadays. This means that media reporting is more likely influenced
by certain political leanings and ideologies of people who support media companies
financially. This is particularly true in terms of reporting political or social
news.
Media bias or biased reporting is
particularly apparent in countries where there are major opposing parties such as
the United States where political and social views are determined by the ideologies
set by the Democrats and the Republicans.
Media outlets tend to milk on this dynamics, especially prior to an election day or
when there are news items that invoke extensive attention, such as the death of
George Floyd, wherein most media agencies proved to present news one-sidedly. They
often reported news in support of George Floyd and African-Americans. Thus, media
outlets delivering news either through print media or broadcast media have to take
a side when reporting news in order to gain following or to support the opinions of
those who keep their operations afloat.
Reporting in print media or broadcast media is, by and large, unfair not because of
the journalists who gather and distribute the news but because of the news agencies
they work for.
