I’m curious how you got the impression that Ed Yong “covers all viewpoints.” Going through the list of stories he wrote for Atlantic [1] seems to tell a different story, particularly in regards to his covering of the COVID pandemic. I’m not necessarily disagreeing with what he wrote, but to claim he “covers all viewpoints” seems disingenuous.

What are some viewpoints that you think he should have covered in order to justify the “covers all viewpoints” claim? Could you elaborate on why they would be important to cover?

A fair point - I'm not sure disingenuous, and, I have a sense of what the parent commenter means in informal language about "covers all viewpoints", but, really, doing so in any stricter sense is almost certainly impossible, even for far simpler stories / events than those he has tended to cover.

"all viewpoints" depends on how open your Overton window is, right?
