All reporting is biased in some way; reporters have to choose what facts to report about a story and what sort of wording to use when reporting them. What I responded to was a broad claim that nearly every story about abuses of police power is misconstrued and distorted. That is not merely an accusation of bias; it is an accusation of deliberate bias, and it suggests that the police and prosecutors are victims of a hostile media.
There is nothing wrong or outrageous about assuming that someone who makes such claims has far-right political leanings.
