The issue itself may not be partisan, but it will still be interpreted that way. The media has been a political strawman for both parties for a long time. Each accuses the other of essentially controlling it to further their agenda. Once accusations of 'treason' are made from a media source, then inevitably at least half of the country will dismiss it as propaganda.

If a media outlet did, I think they would probably have to do so carefully.
