Back to EpisodesTwo Nobodies Who Know Nothing | Media Bias: What Aren’t They Telling You?
Description
Same story. Two networks. Two completely different versions. How do we figure out what actually happened—and what never made the headlines?
Wes Tankersley and Robert Watson talk about media bias, missing context, and why we’re quick to trust stories that match what we already believe. From coverage decisions to a construction truck photo that sparked an argument on TikTok, we explore how perspective shapes the conclusions we draw.
We get into:
• The stories media outlets choose to cover—and leave out
• Why we trust our preferred news sources and question everyone else’s
• Political polls, campaign texts, and who actually responds
• Assumptions about veterans, construction workers, and strangers online
• Clickbait headlines that don’t match the actual story
Before you judge the picture, read the headline, or pick a side, how much of the story do you really have?
Join Two Nobodies Who Know Nothing every Friday at 5 AM Mountain / 7 AM Eastern.
