Greeting mates! As we all know we've been ordered to summarize a news article and comment about it so now i am going to bring a story from New York Times which the previous time i was confused and brought up an article from New York Post instead. The article I read is about the North Korean policy to prevent citizens to name after their leader Kim Jong-Un but as the name is widely common for both men and women the policy has not yet been confirmed. With the brief information to be report i somehow spotted plenty biases through many uninvolved details on the famous leader that the author mention, intentionally the post owner describe the notorious reputation of Mr. Kim such as the execution of his mentor and uncle, the Nuclear missile test and the conflict against his fellow neighbor South Korea. It's obvious that these behaviors are exclusively unacceptable for the public but if we think more critical it's apparently that these informations have been shown in the media various times already. As the news about the North Korean leader is now fading away, i personally assume that the American news agency is trying to re-exhibit the news by using the story selection bias to provoke the audiences and regain attention on the particular topic.
Please share me your opinion, i would like to know what you think about this article
Noy

I think your opinion about why this article was chosen is inaccurate. You may have misjudged the purpose of the article because of your bias. Certainly, the American news media has been unfair to Kim Jong-Un and his family, but he has been cruel to his people. You point out that he has executed his mentor and uncle, so how could you think that the New York Times is being unfair to another oppressive trait of his. Isn't that what news is? They are providing more information for readers to form an opinion about Kim Jong-Un.
