Fox News and Outfoxed

Today we continued our conversation about bias. Students listened to the Eagles' song Dirty Laundry. They chose passages to discuss and made conclusions about the meaning of the song. We discussed news, information, entertainment and info-tainment in the media. Students watched the the beginning of the film Outfoxed which explores bias in Fox's presentation of the news. Students completed this film guide as they watched. Students are also expected to detect the bias of the filmakers.
