Within this article, there may be a lack of diversity as the majority of readers for this sport are adult males. Few women may read this article. The way the article is written is directed towards males, other avid fans, as it has specific basketball lingo and heavily relies on statistics to convey the message. The writer of this article is biased as they are in the home state of the Timberwolves who are located in  Minnesota. He praises Kevin Garnet who was a former Timber Wolves player yet disregards other players on the opposing team, leaving their contributions to the Celtics win out of the article. > The language, as previously stated is loaded with statistical information about the game of basket ball, only an avid fan of the sport would be able to fully follow the article and understand its message. Coverage of so-called "reverse discrimination" usually fails to focus on any of the institutional factors which gives power to prejudice—such as larger issues of economic inequality and institutional racism. Coverage of hate speech against gays and lesbians often fails to mention increases in gay-bashing and how the two might be related. Usually headlines are not written by the reporter. Since many people just skim headlines, misleading headlines have a significant impact. A classic case: In a New York Times article on the June 1988 U.S.-Soviet summit in Moscow, Margaret Thatcher was quoted as saying of Reagan, "Poor dear, there's nothing between his ears." The Times headline: "Thatcher Salute to the Reagan Years." This story is displayed prominently on the front page of the sports section of the Newspapers site.
