Brenton Kenkel, a philosophy and political science major at the University of Kentucky, wrote a column in the student newspaper this morning that mentions business coverage in the overall context of whether the media is conservative or biased.
Kenkel writes: “Although I think the conservative complaints are misguided (for instance, business reporting even in supposedly ultra-liberal papers like The New York Times always speaks from the viewpoint of owners and managers, not workers), a re-evaluation of standards of ‘objectivity’ is certainly in order. The old-media attitude – ‘These stories are important because we say they are, and you should trust our superior wisdom’ – doesn’t cut it anymore.”
For a college student, I like his thinking and analysis.
