Unbiased reporting...
2004-07-05

How's this title grab you: Group of Lawyers Seek to Overturn 10 Patents-Report. Yes, that's actually the Electronic Frontier Foundation, defined on their own page as "a nonprofit group of passionate people - lawyers, volunteers, and visionaries - working to protect your digital rights". Guess whomever wrote the Reuters article just stopped at the "lawyers" part. Could you imagine a news organization saying a "Group of Lawyers" when talking about the RIAA or the MPAA? Or the Cattleman's assocation or even the American Bar Association?

So, is this biased reporting, or just plain bad reporting?
