    Not shocking. A lot of the people who claim to be the most “patriotic” or “religious” seem to be overcompensating for something else they’re hiding. Kind of like the extremely “straight” types with gigantic closets.

      It’s the whole projection thing. Everything they complain that the liberals are doing, they’re actually doing, whether it’s to divert attention or whatever.

        This is why the book banners at the last school board meeting gave my wife & I pedo vibes.

    Stupid biased headline. Alternate headlines that have different biases.

    • White man pleads guilty to possessing child pornography.
    • Utah man pleads guilty to possessing child pornography.
    • Utah citizen pleads guilty to possessing child pornography.
    • Unemployed man pleads guilty to possessing child pornography. (not sure if the guy is actually unemployed)

    None of the above are as click-baity which is why they weren’t chosen.

        Seems that he is a member, but you may be missing my point. This is the equivalent of a headline that reads - “Black man steals from store”. The goal of writing such a headline is to make certain people click through and give it their attention.

        He is also a Utah citizen, etc. Why would they choose to emphasize that one aspect? I’m not suggesting that Patriot Front members are more or less likely to plead guilty to possessing child pornography. I have no idea about that, but this article is subtly hinting that.

            If he is a member, how is that biased to comment on it?

            Seems like you’re still missing my point? The article, as headlined, is designed get a rise and to get clicks.

            Is it presenting facts that you don’t like?

            More like presenting facts I don’t care about. Would you care at all about this if it was one of my alternate headlines?

              It’s pointing out facts.

              Would you prefer the headline to be ‘Person pleads guilty to crime” or would that be to click baity too?

                Getting closer to my point.

                Person pleads guilty to crime

                This is a pointless headline that no one cares about. It would be extremely not click-baity to the point that it’s not newsworthy.

                When I’m referring to bias I’m also talking about what is and isn’t deemed newsworthy.
