(FROM THE LETTER: The real problem lies elsewhere — in the unbalanced, ideologically rooted and politicized writing in what poses as news reporting. The primary, but not exclusive, source of this problem is the Associated Press and the large dailies that maintain national and international reporting staffs. In too many of their articles, a careful and observant reader can immediately identify value-laden modifiers, presumptions of underlying intent, and selective and biased presentation of facts all shaped into a blatantly political narrative.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Joe Biden, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, announced a plan Tuesday to spend tens of billions of dollars to help people of color overcome inequities in the economy, a move that comes amid financial and racial upheaval nationwide. The plan calls for dedicating $30 billion of previously proposed spending on a small business opportunity fund for black, brown and Native American entrepreneurs. Biden is also proposing to triple the goal for federal contracting with small disadvantaged businesses, from 5 percent to at least 15 percent of all spending on materials and services by 2025.)
