That may be most news organizations these days. You may not be able to completely escape some sort of bias. However I think this is usually used as a cop out for news organizations failing uterly at doing their jobs.

There is a big difference between subtle bias when clearly reporting the facts and deliberately pandering to and riling up your customers based on their preconceptions.

There is a big difference between going into a story to find and present facts with as little of your own bias a possible, and going into a story with the direct intent of finding a way to spin it to satisfy your audience in boost sales.
