You can determine a lot of bias in the news, TV, Radio or printed by what is not being reported. My example which calls out loud to one and to all. A rare hurricane hit North Carolina and devastated the area. Huge sections of interstate 40 have been washed away. Power stations have been destroyed and people are living in tents. Yet, do you hear any news on it.

Naturally, if it were in California, as some disasters have occurred, or in New York… Yes it would be plastered all over the front page and it would be the leading stories on TV and radio. Indeed, the last hurricane to hit NY, NY carried front page news for weeks. Moreover, the government funds were rushed in there before the first 24 hours.

Recovery in the mountains of N. C. will take years. The support for the highways and bridges will have to be made before they actually start on the roadways and bridges. Just getting to these places is going to be a challenge. I would guess roads will have to be built to let the builders get to the sites.

I would guess that most of the power will be restored in most places in a month or two from now. I would suspect it will be longer to restore the houses. I mean these people did not build near the coast where they might expect a hurricane. They worst they are supposed to have is a snow storm or an occasional landslide from a rainstorm. Their insurance on the homes and businesses will likely not pay for much of it. I mean, who in N. C. would carry hurricane insurance.

The people in NY, NY built where they should expect storms, right on the coast. Moreover they did not need to deal with having to move megatons of dirt to rebuild the roads.

The people in NY, NY are pretty well back to normal thanks to moneys coming from Kansas and Oregon and the OK state. Pretty much from the rest of the country.

It is obvious why the news media pays so much attention to NY, NY instead of N. C. NY, NY is not only in their back yard, but they share common politics. I mean, do you suppose that the NY Times would have covered the Damage in NY, NY if it were a thousand miles away? Do you suppose they would have covered it if the area was solid red?

The proof is in the action. They spent a lot of news print on NY, NY and hardly a thing on N. C.

Well there is one other thing that might explain it. They might have had a problem getting the reporters into N. C. The reporters might have a problem phoning in the story. Also, they might have a problem finding a hotel room, or, for that matter a hotel.
