See if you can spot the difference between the Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s coverage of Georgia GOP Senate candidate Kelly Loeffler and her Democratic opponent Rev. Raphael Warnock.
We’ll give you a moment, as it’s super-subtle:

“What bias!?!”

No bias, or anything…

"Untouched in first round" according to what? My gosh.

The media bias here is so thick you could cut it with a knife https://t.co/KGLznjBirE

Lol, if you can't see the bias then you're too far gone https://t.co/aCatoauc0i

The AJC’s framing on Raphael Warnock is a perfect case of media bias
It’s not that Warnock’s comments or views are extreme, controversial, or even just potentially problematic with voters.
It’s that this is all Kelly Loeffler’s creation – she’s the reason for Warnock’s problems https://t.co/mfXh4C6cjm

Phenomenal.
Loeffler: "turns hard right,"
Warnock, the night after video of his wife detailing an ugly domestic dispute breaks, and after weeks of taking on water for outrageous positions and comments, "remains untouched."
Not even trying to hide it. https://t.co/qGBllty4kM

Still, there’s a silver lining in here somewhere:
At least they made it easier, so we don't have to cut/paste two different images side-by-side to show the ridiculous bias.
