How is the public affected by the possibility of biased news?

The public is affected by biased news because the reporter has his/hers p. o. v whereas they can't be 100% equal to each imposing topic. So what society hears from the reporter is what people assume is correct rather than forming their own opinion and research, such as, politics it can become a very heated argument between individuals. No one is completely unbiased.

The public could be given less credible information, for it was given with an extra unnecessary emphasis. The caster could make the story seem more/less or a problem.
