Journalistic Fraud: How The New York Times Distorts the News and Why It Can No Longer Be Trusted is a book by Bob Kohn with a thesis similar to that of Bernard Goldberg's Bias.
Both books allege a climate of liberal bias in which reporters routinely slant or spike news stories to ensure that the media presents only a liberal point of view.
Journalistic Fraud claims to detail the precise way a unified liberal bias perpetuates the media, citing copious examples from the New York Times. Goldberg claims, for example, that the Times omits the adjective "liberal" when describing liberal sources while still applying the adjective "conservative" when describing conservative sources as part of a hidden conspiracy to establish liberal views as "mainstream."
