That just isn't true. It is possible to be unbiased in journalism, and it was a major goal of journalists at various times in history. Obviously not all journalists at all times have striven towards this goal, but some have. Stop making excuses for blatant partisanship, instead hold them to a higher standard.

> "to be unbiased in journalism" By no means. Word choice on its own __is__ a bias. Even if you reported straight facts, the word choice used presents a bias or not. Is it a military action or a terrorist attack? Is it a protest? An occupation? Are they Freedom Fighters? Choosing __to__ or __not to__ use an organization's given name or a description of them, is having a bias. Choosing to report on something at all is a presentation of bias. There is bias in everything and to imagine there isn't is to be even more susceptible to it.
