Such discrimination can be as to properly selecting:

1. Mind-and-spirit elevating classical and jazz music vs that “rap” and “hip hop” ravings as support murder and abuse of women; 

2. The essential teachings of Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, Jews and Sikhs as support peace vs those of the Nazis, Atheistic Communists and Muslims which inflict terrorism on the world; 

3. Such poetry as reflects craftsmanship vs the unorganized flushing of apparently random non-thoughts as come from the distorted minds of those who claim to be poets;

4. The facts that young Black youths commit more violent crimes than those of other races (As properly noted by the Rev. Jessie Jackson as to groups of youths as might be following him down a dark street) vs the claim that acknowledging such reality is race “discrimination”;

5.  The fact that the family, based on pairings of women and men has been the basic unit of (Most) civilizations which have gone beyond primitive hunting-gathering societies vs.the false claim that homosexual couples provide the same value-to and maintaining-of civilization;

6. That the intent of the writers of the Bill Of Rights as to the "Establishment Cause" was to keep only the Federal Government from establishing an official "National Church" vs those who maintain that the "free exercise of religion" should be limited to the insides of homes and places-of-worship;
7. The views of our nation's founders that an armed citizenry is basic to controlling tyranny vs the position that they should be disarmed “for their own good”; And,

8. Those immigrants who legally come into the USA with those skills and cultural conditioning as will improve our Republic Vs. those who: Illegally enter the USA in violation of our democratically enacted laws; Bring with them diseases; Bring other parents' children and cast them on our stressed social services agencies OR sell them into child prostitution; Increase the common good of the USA by providing goods and such services as do NOT depress wages or steal jobs from the poorest of our fellow citizens.

If no one else does so, at least journalists  should use the best definitions of words.
