arXiv:2606.26100v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Media bias detection is a critical task for ensuring fair and balanced information dissemination, yet existing sentence-level approaches classify each sentence independently, ignoring inter-sentence contextual signals that human annotators naturally exploit. We present \textbf{HierBias}, a hierarchical context-conditioned media bias detector that formally models document context in bias prediction. We introduce the \emph{context-conditioned bias probability} and prove theoretically that leveraging document context strictly reduces the Bayes error
