It's not news anymore it's opinion made to look like news, they can fool some, some of the time and they can fool all some of the time but they can't fool all all the time.
Again you jump into the middle of what I write and make stupid statements, I did not say I supported the parents, my entire first post was about the wishy washy atheist here and as usual deflections come flying, typical atheist approach, most of you guys are as plastic as they come.
Like I said, I did not say I supported the parents, because if the blog was correct in it's facts the parents were totally irresponsible.

The only way an accusation of bias against the news would be at all relevant was if you're asserting that some component of the actual story was falsified; are you claiming that the girl didn't get chemotherapy at all, didn't go for alternative treatments, or didn't die? Because the parents' own statement confirmed that she did all three of those things, and those are the only facts we need to come to a properly justified conclusion on this issue, as the science on chemotherapy and its efficacy is easily accessible without recourse to news outlets, no matter their bias. As is research into these alternative treatments, and how they don't work.
You're seeking to dismiss claims that chemotherapy is proven to work, whereas native treatments (administered from accused conmen that run massage parlors as medical establishments) aren't, as wrong because they come from a source that you (baselessly) assert to be biased, but that's an irrelevant objection to raise, as we don't need to go to any news source to get information on this.
And are you denying that you were factually incorrect in characterizing the news story as a "blog"? Because it's not a blog, it's a national news media outlet, and yet you're still calling it a blog here. Seems like you too have a problem just admitting you were wrong.
