> report without bias That isn't possible. Everything contains bias. The simple choice to report a particular story instead is a bias against the other stories left unreported. The duty of a journalist is to disclose their bias when it might affect the story, so people can interpret their report with the proper context. Reporters are not mere stenographers that repeat official statements and press releases. They choose what they feel is important enough to report on and give their interpretation of the facts as well as their opinion about the facts (which should be properly labeled as op-ed). > presenting the Echo as a terrible idea when two weeks ago the author was touting the same thing as amazing in a review.
