Abstract

This report will examine criticism of the media from the political right and the religious right to determine, first, whether the criticisms are valid and, if they are, to suggest methods of improvement in covering religious and moral issues. The assessment, of course, will be subjective, and the report may raise more questions than it answers. But the conclusions drawn could be a starting point for further study of perceived media bias.
