Stupid biased headline. Alternate headlines that have different biases.

White man pleads guilty to possessing child pornography.
Utah man pleads guilty to possessing child pornography.
Utah citizen pleads guilty to possessing child pornography.
Unemployed man pleads guilty to possessing child pornography. (not sure if the guy is actually unemployed)

None of the above are as click-baity which is why they weren't chosen.

Biased? Was he not a member of Patriot Front?

Seems that he is a member, but you may be missing my point. This is the equivalent of a headline that reads - "Black man steals from store". The goal of writing such a headline is to make certain people click through and give it their attention.

He is also a Utah citizen, etc. Why would they choose to emphasize that one aspect? I'm not suggesting that Patriot Front members are more or less likely to plead guilty to possessing child pornography. I have no idea about that, but this article is subtly hinting that.
