The shouldn't in an ideal world, but on the other hand, it's obvious that it can. If you're looking for someone to perform a specific task, and you stumble on a blog post from him, or a project that showcases his passion and skill, it would be (IMO) pretty stupid to "remove the bias" and ignore this. At this point it's not even bias, it's just proof in front of your eyes that this guy has some knowledge and might be a good fit ( or whatever proof it is)

Consider a hiring manager finding a blog post from a month ago about the candidate having a newborn child; now the hiring manager has been exposed to information that can be used to justify discrimination.
