Bias

Just got back from a series of presentations wherein first-year PhD students had to give an overview of their intended research. Keep an eye on this guy, as one of his interests is the automatic detection of bias in news. Imagine how such an objective criterion of bias could change journalism. Rupert Murdoch would have to go back to peddling magazines out of his van (or whatever).
