Media Critique: Matt Bevin Attacks Mitch McConnell On Obamacare, Aligns Himself With Senate Hostage Takers

This article is about Matt Bevin the candidate for U.S. Senate. Bevin has attacked Mitch McConnell for not taking a strong stand against Obamacare. McConnell is a Republican so we obviously know where he stands, but Bevin, also a Republican, is strongly criticizing McConnell for this. The article takes a very liberal stand, using "Senate Hostage Takers" in the heading. The article is very negative toward the Republican candidates. The journalist is not being inclusive. The article portrays this political party in a negative way. The journalist is slamming Bevin for supporting a government shutdown as a means of defunding Obamacare. The journalist is being non-biased to McConnell because the journalist knows that McConnell is trying to stay out of the argument. According to the journalist, McConnell is staying out of it because of his upcoming primary race. The journalist writes, "Bevin is the type who flat out doesn't believe that courting -- or even causing -- a default is a bad thing." This statement from the article is not a verified fact. This comes from the journalist's opinion. The journalist violated these principles and yardsticks; truth, loyalty, verification, independence, inclusive, and fairness. The news company also needs to have an obligation to avoid publishing articles such as this. The editor should've helped the journalist remove their opinion, so the article was more factual.
