Does that actually translate into deliverables though? I'm not convinced it does which is why the question was posed

- GauntletWizard 3y agoAs far as I can tell, it doesn't, but having many records with the same bias over a significant period of time (as newspapers tend to do, though not always only one - Each columnist may have their own, but that's why there are bylines) can help you distill that out.
- catiopatio 3y agoNobody can ever be perfectly objective, but trying to maintain objectivity gets you a lot closer than rejecting the ideal outright. The problem is that the news business has largely failed, and for the few players left, objectivity is no longer the goal, whether that’s due to explicit choice to prioritize ideology over objectivity, and/or simply prioritizing survival. It’s expensive to produce good journalism.
- plaguepilled 3y agoWhile I agree with the goal of 'good journalism' I also want to posit that striving for objectivity is importantly distinct from being objective - which I think you agree with based on this most recent comment.
