View show details

In episode 40 of Bias Breakdown, we explore how coverage of the government shutdown has focused on health care for immigrants and evolved into two partisan narratives. Left-leaning outlets emphasize that undocumented immigrants remain ineligible for Medicaid, while right-leaning outlets highlight efforts to expand or fund care for those here illegally. Both rely on selective facts about a proposal to repeal Medicaid reimbursement limits. The episode examines how slant and spin shape public understanding through partial truths.
