Biased Reporting Does it Exist?

  1. Same author, different bias. Both of these articles were prepared by emmamadison24. The comments are posted to show the difference in how this affects the information that will follow in the article, they are not to throw shade on anyone, just a comparison on how idols are treated.  
  2. Many times I have read articles by emmamadison24, not one that has discussed anything to do with BIGBANG, has been positive.  Every single article has multiple negative comments by KNETS, as most articles have been rewritten from dailynaver.  If I go read those articles, there are some positive comments, NONE are ever posted on ALLKPOP in articles by emmamadison24.
  3. The differences in the posting of KNETS comments from idol group to idol group sets a tone for the articles and the ALLKPOP comment sections to follow articles. If an article is introduced with KNETS negative comments, then the words in the article are seen as an invitation to throw shade on the artists discussed in the article.  If the comments are positive, then the article follows along with positive comments.
  4. Multiple times we see the same author negatively impacting certain artists and others are apparently only seen in a positive light. 

  5. Is this journalism?  No, it is a one sided boosting up of one band, while simultaneously kicking others.  It is unnecessary,  just print the articles without the KNETS comments or be fair minded and print a compilation of positive and negative comments.  
  6. This is the worst kind of smear campaign because it is supposedly from anonymous KNETS, passing the blame of all the negativity onto a group of people posting at a totally different website.  
  7. For some groups, this is the positive sort of KNETS comments that are transferred over from the naver sources:

  9. 1.[+7,163, -401] I'm a fan but I don't want to shield him. Jung Kook-ah..I hope you're careful in the future.
  10. 2. [+4,304, -1,284] When I first started driving I made a lot of mistakes too without knowing I was breaking traffic laws but a lot of people are out to get BTS right now so please be more careful...the standards are much higher for you guys now..
  11. 3. [+3,064, -151] I thought that's what happened. Both of you got bruises so please get treated well so that there are no after effects.
  12. 4. [+2,758, -313] I'm not a fan of BTS. I'm an ahjussi who doesn't even know the members names but a common traffic accident like this is bound to happen to anyone. He admitted the mistake and settled with the victim well so it shouldn't be an issue.
  13. 5. [+2,221, -211] Let's be careful driving out there BTS...if you do something wrong for a moment it's amplified for you guys now.
  14. 6. [+824, -141] It looks like it was a speeding violation or traffic lights...to be honest this happens to everyone, am I wrong? Of course I'm not saying he did well or anything but it's not something he should be getting hate for ㅋㅋ
  15. 7. [+974, -432] Thank God it wasn't a drunk driving accident and no one was hurt...he already settled with the victim but all the articles are all "booked by police" fanning the flames..
  16. 8. [+84, -39] It's a small fender bender. No big deal...Did he kill anyone? No. It was a simple traffic violation just stop.
  17. 9. [+82, -12] What he did was wrong. He needs to take some time and reflect...Army need to stop shielding him and stay quiet~
  18. 10. [+47, -5] This is not the time to cause controversy...Jung Kook-ah I hope you'll be a bit more careful in the future..

For other groups, these are the type of KNETS comments transferred over from dailynaver

  1. 1. [+1,705, -83] This is a country of dogs and pigs so of course they'll comeback and line up the charts like Balchimong~
  2. 2. [+1,374, -85] Pffffft, get this druggie anchovy out of here.
  3. 3. [+1,241, -52] We should start a project group with Seungri, Jung Joon Young, MC Mong and Yoo Seung Junㅋㅋㅋ
  4. 4. [+52, -1] Didn't TOP say with his own mouth that he's not coming back? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
  5. 5. [+41, -1] The fans are the problematic ones...regardless of what scandal they get into they're "forever our oppa"ㅋㅋㅋ
  6. 6. [+32, -2] After Seungri and TOP's scandals I was done with Big Bang...I just want to erase those old memories..
  7. 7. [+27, -11] I don't want to see this gang of criminals...Taeyang should hurry and leave the team and comeback solo
  8. 8. [+26, -2] Who exactly is anticipating their return? ㅋㅋㅋ
  9. 9. [+23, -4] I'll never buy their brand or listen to any of their songs...but I'm sure there's a lot of pigs out there that will..
  10. 10. [+23, -2] ? surely it won't be the complete team...
  11. 11. [+23, -7] Two druggies..one sex offender...one left and I doubt the other one is normal either ㅋ
  12. 12. [+20, -2] Who the hell is anticipating their return?!!!

Let the joust begin!
