The world is too one-sided

When we watch the news, what do we see? There are varying degrees of bias, and I wanted to bring out how wrong the media really can be. I know these are old events, ironically both in Colorado. Two closely-timed church shootings carried out by the same man, and the massacre at Columbine High School. While both were tragic in their own right, the news was quick to demonize the shooters, to the point even of repeatedly attempting to force us to believe the Columbine shooters asked a girl if she believed in God before shooting her. Why do some witness accounts never recall the girl being asked if she believed in God? When government institutions in Colorado are allowed to take illegal disciplinary action based on religious bias should we really just buy into that? And thanks to a Denver Post article, it appears another shooter was more a victim than an aggressor. I think the Virginia Tech shooting was sick, and the shooting of a congresswoman in Arizona and the Norwegian terrorist attacks were appalling. Yet Fox News felt the need to defend pictures of targets over politicians, and claim that the Norwegian terrorists couldn't be Christians, and Glenn Beck compared the campers to the Hitler Youth. And how fast did the media blame Marilyn Manson for Columbine? If a Christian can't be terrorists, how come Muslims can? How come we can bring up 9/11 and Hurricanes, yet ignore the genocide in Sudan and the massive flooding and earthquakes in the East? If there's anything I want people the do after reading this: it's to question and not blindly accept, question even those telling you to question, even question me and this post. Believe what you do, but not because you're told it's right, but because you know it's right...
