Consider that getting many views and avoiding losing subscribers or viewers are probably very much inline with the motivations of (insert your favorite highly biased political pundit). Particularly when dealing with small subsets of the population, popularity is a very unreliable North Star to guide you towards neutrality. Consider for a moment that, like nearly all audiences, your audience too holds biases. In that case, it’s very possible that more of certain types of bias, not less, would produce a more loyal and engaged audience I.e. more views less unsubscribes.

I am not familiar with your work, your biases, or your success in achieving neutrality. Based on the comment I am responding to, you may be well served by investigating a phenomenon called “audience capture” which a lot of excellent journalists have written about at length. Audience capture is a very hard pitfall to avoid entirely, especially when you are in a position where you financially rely on audience engagement and size.

If your goal is to avoid bias, a very noble goal, what you describe in this comment in all likelihood will sooner or later cause you to lean into more bias rather than less.
