Abstract | Develops a content-based technique of assessing fairness and balance of newspaper coverage of controversial issues. Investigates 259 stories on 18 issues in 18 newspapers. Finds that 1 side dominated at least 3 of 6 story qualities assessed and only 7% of stories were evenly balanced, while more than 50% of stories had at least 4 of the 6 story qualities dominated by 1 side.
