Media coverage of Venezuela boat strikes paints incomplete picture: Bias Breakdown
Update: 2025-10-21
Description
In episode 42 of Bias Breakdown, we examine how the media is framing President Trump’s authorization of U.S. military strikes off the coast of Venezuela. We unpack the constitutional and legal arguments, including Trump’s use of Article II powers, the classification of traffickers as “unlawful combatants,” and Congress’s role in approving military action. We also explore how news outlets across the political spectrum cover the story — which perspectives are highlighted and which are omitted — and examine patterns of viewpoint and source attribution omission, showing how these choices shape public perception of the strikes’ legality and justification.
