In episode 37 of Bias Breakdown, we examine the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the polarized media coverage that followed. From left-leaning outlets labeling him “controversial” and “divisive” to right-leaning commentators using emotionally charged rhetoric, this episode breaks down how word choice, framing, and opinion-as-fact reporting shape public perception. We also explore polling data showing widening partisan divides on key issues — revealing how media divisions mirror America’s deepening political polarization.
