This past week the video of the man being dragged off of the United Airlines flight has god viral! When you turn on the television you see the video on the news and you hear the news reporter expressing some sort of emotion, most likely a melancholy tone in this case.
I came across this well viewed article and video about the situation. This article is slanted. For example, the first thing you see and notice before you even begin reading the article is the article title. The word "dragged" just expresses a sorrow feeling. Just the word "dragged" itself does not sound pleasant or positive in any matter, especially when it comes to dragging a human.
The second thing I noticed was the first sentence in this article, "The disturbing scene captured on cellphone videos by United Airlines passengers on Sunday went beyond the typical nightmares of travelers on an overbooked flight". The second word in this test is "disturbing". This article clearly is slanted and does not agree with the actions that were taken.
There are many specific words in this article that express the slanted writing such as shocking, annoying, dragged, screamed, etc. Although these are all adjetives that are describing the scene, some may have wrote this article in a oposing view, for example the officer's themselves. This type of slanted writing that is done in the article and in the video is a way the author wants to express and gain more attention and support.
In simpler terms, this article and video is bias.
