Sports Media Bias
Two boys were playing football in Central Park when one was attacked by a Rottweiler. Thinking quickly, the other boy rips off a board of the nearby fence, wedges it down the dog's collar and uses it as leverage to break the huge dog's neck.
Seeing this, a New York Times reporter rushes over to interview the boy. "Giants fan saves friend from vicious animal," he starts writing in his notebook.
"But, I'm not a Giants fan," the boy replied.
"Jets fan rescues friend from horrific attack," the reporter starts again.
"No, I'm not a Jets fan either," the boy said.
"Then what are you?" the reporter asked.
"My favorite team is the Houston Texans," replied the boy.
The reporter turns to a new sheet in his notebook and writes, "Redneck bastard kills family pet."
