Assuming that you're referring to the excerpt about a woman who was criticized because she's not quitting her job because she got a baby

How do news outlets impact public opinion or public perception
RSB [31]
News outlets are very trusted and can show just as much information as they want to. With the right information, they can make you believe anything. News outlets can fool you into thinking a victim is not really a victim, someone guilty is innocent, something that happened on purpose was just an accident, and they can influence your beliefs whether it’s political or religious. It all depends on the information they chose to share, how they chose to share it, and what they say along with what tone they are using. They could sound sarcastic, they could sound serious or light hearted, or they can even make it sound like it’s not a big deal. News outlets are the #1 source for information on many topics for most people all around the world.
