Three major events happen in one day: a Republican politician makes a statement about immigration, a Democratic politician makes a statement about immigration, and a protest group makes a statement about immigration. The producers of the KRSTZ radio program choose to cover only one of these stories. What kind of bias do they show?

Answer:

Framing

Step-by-step explanation:

Bias is a disproportionate weight in favor or against one thing, person or group.

There are various types of bias, the one that is used in the question above is framing. This bias consists of present information in a way that could be considered unfair. The person or media that gives the information selects which of the sources present. They put a frame to the information presented ignoring the rest of the stories.

I hope this answer helps you.
