It would be statisticly absurd if each mention of each category of person were exactly equal. There will always be some variations where one group is mentioned more often than another. This type of opinion story is generated by data mining. The authors run computers across big databanks and look for any of the natural variation in random events that shows the type of bias they want to illustrate. They then report this and only this occurrance. This data mining is a charade designed to fool the easily fooled. TP
