Biased because they don't report the other sides. MEMRI is an easy touch: all you have to do is get a half-baked "all Jews use children's blood in baked goods" story and tease MEMRI into a free lunch to tell your story. MEMRI uses that story, and business deductible lunch tab, to solicit funds from bleeding hearts. Pay themselves nice salaries, and have another lunch looking for the sort of stories, real or not, to get cash sympathy from unsuspecting bleeding hearts.
Not rocket science, been going on profitably for decades. Jesse Jackson was a master gamer.

The fund solicitation element may be true, but they're a media institute not a charity, after all. In any case just about any organization does its work with certain pre-existing outlooks otherwise the people involved would likely have never got together. My point, however, is in line with some other replies here; that being that they're reporting actual events not inventing them. There's a big difference IMO between bending something to fit a position (Jackson, often) and merely reporting something verbatum that fits your outlook. These sermons actually occur, and they're not uncommon. If there are moderate imams in SA preaching coexistance with Jews and Christians you think we'd hear about them, MEMRI aside. We don't, and that's the problem.
