Journalists, and particularly formal journalism training (eg, a Degree over a Cadetship) really plug Objectivity as being this skill that can be developed and an ideal that must be achieved. As long as journalists are human beings, that theory is bullshit. Bias and censorship, usually unconscious, unintended, and not impacting on the story are natural parts of journalism. Journalists should understand that (most don't). The public should understand that (and read everything skeptically as a result).
