Objectivity is not the issue. It is distortion of the facts. If the reporters report the facts honestly and completely with headlines which are based on the facts then they can give their objective opinions but MSM has stopped doing that. They select the facts they want, ignore other facts, or misrepresent the facts by characterizing them instead of reporting them. Thus this article has no meaning as it discusses objectivity when facts are the issue. If I say something like the recent testimony of the FISA judges. Report the testimony. Don't report your characterization which is not what most would conclude. Conclusions in the headlines often are not supported by the facts in the article from a reasonable perspective. So report the facts and make your headline a factual one , not some conclusion and let us then decide. Frankly nothing has changed from the 1780s but the internet is exposing the bias which always existed.
