This is a false dichotomy, there are more options available than "complete, 100% unbiased" and "completely 100% biased".

You can present things in a relatively objective way, even if you have a bit of a bias. You can do it by treating the other side fairly, and with compassion/understanding.

That is not what happens anymore, people have carved out their audiences and play TO those audiences, and they craft their narrative based upon what that audience wants, rather than a compassionate treatment of the other side.
