Where does the bias come in? You would have to stop reading literally mid-paragraph to be mislead.

Sounds like it comes in the first half of the paragraph then
The point of a paragraph is to thread together sentences into meaning beyond that contained in them individually.
I just started reading A Tale of Two Cities, I assume the book is just about "the best of times."

Otherwise the intro is written with incredible bias.

> I just started reading [...] with incredible bias.

wow how could you

It? That? The? What are you talking about? It seems hypocritical to imply that meanings ought to be understood divorced from context while your own post doesn't meet the standard.
That every given sentence, when extracted from context, should be totally free of bias, is a ridiculous expectation.
Post title repeats the same 'all together' bias, so it is likely the single strongest sentence in the article despite being wrong when viewed in detail
which, to be fair, is what most people do when skimming articles
Whenever the line inevitably gets quoted out of context.
