EVE reporting have a long history of being very biased, some of the largest organizations in the game usually run their own news sites.

I think it's very difficult to make people see you as unbiased in a world where everyone is an enemy, even your "friends" are probably spies waiting to stab you in the back and steal all your stuff.

So basically it mirrors journalism and reporting in real life?
I've seen long time friends F each other for all they own or to gain favours in the greater political hierarchies. It's savage once you get to a certain point in terms of resources or logistics.
So really just like real life then?
If you live in a developing or cartel/mafia driven land.
Wait. You don't think 'friends' backstab each every day to get ahead at work? Or that 'friends' hold each other back out of jealousy? The crabs in a bucket analogy has been around long before Eve.
Not where I work now, no.
Except you're doing it for fake internet money that only equates to maybe $100 USD after all is said and done.
You're making it sound like it's something bad but it's in fact what draws a lot of players and what makes it a game on a completely different level.
