Bias Reporting Now Includes Clothes of Children

Bias reporting is so bad it barely passes as news today (unfortunately). Still, every once in a while some takes it from another angle. The topic here is clothing, nice clothing, on children. The children at play here are Kennedys' and Roberts'.

"Washington Post Style writer Robin Givhan has a reputation for occasionally channeling her political predilections in petty fashion critiques of certain Washington actors. George Bush's hair is a "dull gray thatch," but Kerry should "gloat" over his "silver" mop, and John Edwards' mane "demands to be nuzzled."
...
On the Kennedys, such fashion was a "style of dress that might best be described as both aristocratic and democratic," a mix Givhan regrets is "virtually impossible today, at least on the political stage."

But when Roberts' son Jack wore an "ensemble that calls to mind John F. "John-John" Kennedy Jr.," Givhan declared it "not classic" but "old-fashioned. These clothes are Old World, old money and a cut above the light-up/shoe-buying hoi polloi."

The verdict, on the Kennedys: "The modern fashion industry has argued that clothes can make a man look rich. Those images of the Kennedys recall the days when it was assumed that a man did that for his clothes."

Sigh.

The verdict, on the Roberts family: "In their attire, there was nothing too informal; there was nothing immodest. There was only the feeling that, in the desire to be appropriate and respectful of history, the children had been costumed in it."

  2. It is not a new phenomenon that digitizing embroidery services has become a necessity for every business that is into embroidery business. But why is that so? What is the purpose of digitizing embroidery services and why is it a basis for stitching clothes and other products. Digitizing helps to increase the efficiency of embroidery services.
