Liberal Media Bias: Sins of Omissions
When the media reports with Bias, it doesn't report things incorrectly, but it instead uses sins of omission. For example the majority of the money of the Bush Tax Cuts benefitted the rich, and this was widely reported in the media. However the Bush Tax Cuts actually make the tax code more progressive because it lowers the tax rates for poor and middle class and results in the rich paying a higher percentage of taxes. That second fact was left out of a lot of media reporting.

The Obama Administration rejected the Keystone Pipeline stating that they didn't have enough time to review the project.
Title IX hurting middle school boys
In some areas, like Pittsburgh, there aren't enough girls to field a basketball team for 5th and 6th graders, the solution to the problem (so that the schools stay title IX compliant) is to not allow the boys to play if the girls don't want to, all in the name of fairness. I'm all for letting girls play sports, but should we deny boys the opportunity to play sports if their female counterparts don't want to?
