Last week, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer forced a vote on the Right to IVF Act, which would make it a right nationwide for women to access in vitro fertilization and other fertility treatments. The bill would have also expanded access through insurance as well as for military members and veterans. This comes as both Democrats and Republicans are seeking to come up with a response to voters’ concerns about access to abortion and reproductive care — an issue that is expected to figure largely in the November election. Our team examined media coverage of the bill and its aftermath from across the political spectrum in this week’s Topic of the Week. https://lnkd.in/ewAzd4DC
Eight podcasts are included on the chart this month for the first time: - Crosstalk - Federal Newscast - Meghan McCain Has Entered The Chat - NewsBusters Podcast - Plain English with Derek Thompson - The Charles C. W. Cooke Podcast - The PoliticsGirl Podcast - The Weekend Show Almost 70 million people listened to podcasts in 2023, and that’s expected to rise to more than 110 million listeners by 2029. While the podcasts cover a variety of topics, adults of all ages are increasingly turning to podcasts as a main source of news. Of course, like all media platforms, not all podcasts provide factual and unbiased information. Podcasts providing news and news-like content come from a variety of places — from mainstream media outlets to niche groups to independent podcasters. Our analyst team has listened to almost 2,900 episodes from 730 podcasts to help savvy media consumers choose reliable sources of audio news. Examples of all different kinds of podcasts are included on the June Media Bias Chart®. It’s impossible to include all 730 rated shows in one image, so a sample of 64 podcasts are featured on this month’s static media bias chart. https://lnkd.in/gTpk4SVJ
