This is a missed conception.
Like, yes, all information is biased.
The fact that it has to either be biased to align with the republican parties mission, or the democrat parties, is what people say when they say that news source is biased.
Having someone who hates murder report on crime does not invalidate the article because the author was biased against crime for gods sake.
It's possible to write an unbiased article. You just have to keep your "politics" out of it, it's not impossible.
I would argue that it is more impossible to not INFER bias when you READ an article, because no matter what anyone who is left reading this post is going to say that Im some tucker putin simp for saying anything at all.

Aah now I see after the edit. No I can agree with you. That’s called confirmation bias- it’s huge these days and always has been. People have been this way since the beginning of recorded history. If you research about the people’s reaction to the Black Plague in the 1300’s, and compare it to how people reacted in the coronavirus pandemic, it’s actually pretty funny. Conspiracy theories galore too.
