On all sorts of issues, people who claim to be agnostic or neutral usually are taking a position without realizing it. Our “neutral” “impartial” “objective” press, when they succeed in suppressing their personal biases, usually adopt the press’s institutional bias: pro-bipartisanship and pro-centrism.

This is upsetting if you think the optimal policies are significantly left of center or significantly right of center. The centrism-bias and bipartisanship bias also ignore that centrism and bipartisanship have not always served this country well.
