That's called sloppy journalism, when you don't bother checking.  Bias is
when you *do* make an effort to check out the story, and then decide which
version to run with.  There's a difference.

For *that* matter Paul, *you* are showing bias (by your own definition),
since you didn't bother actually finding out if it was a sloppy reporter
or an actual attempt to slant the facts..
