DANIEL INDIVIGLIO: Bloomberg’s Exposé on Koch Industries Reveals … What Exactly? Well, something about Bloomberg, anyway. “All reporters have bias. It’s unavoidable: bias results even through as simple an action as deciding what to write an article about. Much of that bias isn’t necessarily a problem. If you report facts in a fair-and-balanced manner, then readers can judge the story for themselves based on those facts. But at other times, some reporters’ bias cuts so deep that it causes them to produce an article that squints too hard to see smoke when there is no fire. Unfortunately, such an article was produced this week by Bloomberg Markets Magazine on Koch Industries. The article purports to be a hard-hitting exposé on the giant multinational, run by billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch. According to Bloomberg, 14 reporters around the globe worked for six months on the story. What did they turn up? Really, shockingly little. And what’s worse: from the very outset, the reporters’ bias against the Koch brothers is utterly clear.”

Look when you’re hearing this sort of thing from The Atlantic, you’ve got a problem.
