This article is from NPR, which is theoretically as left as mainstream american media gets. Now look at the article and count the “facts” that the farm owner’s got into the article, and count the “facts” that the workers got in. This is biased writing. It’s telling mostly the farmers perspective, and fully allowing them to weave a narrative - while only talking to the workers to get a few pull quotes backing up one element of the story: that things have gotten worse.

“Business” journalism, in fact, most journaism, is from the perspective of capital. We read it, and imagine ourselves in the position of the owners and investors, trying to profit. But it’s far far more likely that if we were part of this story, we would be in the position of the workers, trying to survive on the scraps the owners toss our way.
