Fairness and Accuracy In Reporting and Media Research Center are two groups that focused on the media.
FAIR's mission is to incorparate the 1st amendment in the media. They believe that censorhip and bias are two unfair factors that shouldn't be use in media coverage. They work with journalists and activist to inform the public about news that are not being covered. They covered all types of news, from the "neglected news stories" to even helping journalists when they are in a chokehold. FAIR is concern on delivering news for the people and if people are concerned than the group wants to be contacted by them so they will become media activists.
The Media Research Center is a group of people that show the liberal bias of the media. They are more conservative than FAIR and believe in neutralizing the media and keeping it balanced. What they look for in the media is quantity and qualitive in order to determined if the media has a liberal stand point.
Both of the webpages have goals on proving there is bias in the media though they have different stand points that one is liberal (FAIR) and conservative (MRC).
