So, I read the news. And bias really bothers me, so I have to read three different stories to get the full picture sometimes. Most of the time it's not lies or skewed truth. In fact I don't see that very often at all. But what I do see is missing angles.
When there's a story about people vandalising foreclosed homes, it almost invariably focuses on the realtor and the home itself. It is rich in detail as to exactly what happened to the home(s) and focuses on how this activity brings down the value of the home and the other units around it. What you don't see is why this might be happening? Why is a trend of home vandalism even growing? What drives people to do it? These are all very good questions, probably answered somewhere on the net. Just not in the stories I've read about it.
