No. First, "neutrality" is itself an agenda. Second, even dedicating yourself to some ideal of balance or data-driven journalism or another "objective" standard, editorial choices are still required to direct limited resources--money, column inches--that will inevitably reflect the publication's perspective on what's important and what's not.
