The producers of the KRSTZ radio program choose to cover only one of these stories. What kind of bias do they show?

The producers of the radio program show bias by omission which entails leaving out one side of a story or event and ignoring the facts that may prove or disprove the different angles. This is often evident when news outlets only report one set of events, but not the others. It is also closely related to bias by spin which entails one interpretation of an event.
