The Moon Landing- The Basics
The Controversy
Media Portrayal_ The Huffington Post
The Huffington post RECENTLY wrote an article and they used historical criticism to examine this event. They believed that more than 10 people in the past had gone to the moon and that the pictures they brought back were closely related to the ones the people from the Apollo 11 mission had taken. They said that this proved that the pictures from the Apollo moon landing mission were not fake. In this article, they were biased by omission. They failed to mention the rock with the C on it and an explanation as to why it is there and the voice notes uploaded from the mission on the NASA webpage. They were also biased by story selection. The stories they selected only supported their claim, they didn't bring any point from the opposing side.
