That’s a very good point, and shows one of the limits of my line of thought. Though I don’t think it makes it entirely useless. Using your example, pro-Trump

Using your example, pro-Trump vs anti-Trump… one would have to wait until Trump is gone as POTUS and see how each news org treats the new POTUS. Maybe this analysis would only work over long periods of time.
The other aspect of all of this that you made me think about is that bias is not necessarily bad.
I am biased towards democracy, I don’t think that’s a bad thing. Also, bias against something which is objectively "bad" is not a bad thing.
edit: Maybe the solution here is to embrace bias, and state your biases openly.
