The UK Press:
Described as... "Largely run by a very small group of right-wing media moguls who defend the status-quo of which they are part. If you are on the left and want to change society, the media will always come and get you." - Owen Jones, Guardian reporter - March 2017.
Newspapers are biased through...
-Selection and omission

-Headline
-Photos, captions and camera angles
