Bias Breakdown: Was LA Wildfire Response Failed Policy or Politicized?

  • Summary

  • Wildfires recently ravaged Los Angeles, claiming dozens of lives and destroying thousands of homes. One week later, the city and state’s response is under intense scrutiny. Local leaders face criticism for their absence when the fires broke out, the lack of water resources for firefighters, and budget cuts to the fire department. While the story is widely covered, left- and right-leaning media outlets are framing the criticism differently. In episode five of Bias Breakdown, we explore how right-leaning news outlets blame the fire response on democratic policies while left-leaning news outlets argue President-elect Donald Trump and his allies are politicizing it.
