Rob Rosen - Crimes of Omission, Media Bias, and Journalistic Integrity

About this episode

Rob Rosen discusses media bias and journalistic integrity in relation to his book on the impact of omitted facts in major national stories.

Emmy-winning investigative journalist and television producer Rob Rosen joins the show to discuss his new book, Crimes of Omission: Distorted Justice – The Media’s War on Truth. Rob reveals how major national stories — from Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown (“hands up, don’t shoot”) to George Floyd, Freddie Gray, and beyond — were shaped not just by outright falsehoods, but by selective framing, rushed narratives, and critical facts omitted from coverage. Rob explores how journalism shifted from pursuing truth to becoming activists, and why public trust in the media has collapsed to historic lows. This isn’t a defense of bad policing or an attack on all journalists — it’s a candid examination of how “crimes of omission” have distorted justice, divided the country, and left people reacting to entirely different versions of reality.
