if they're not neutral, they're not journalists. A fascist journalist is just a fascist after all.
The vast majority of journalists work for some sort of publication or news agency, in which they're beholden to the company owners' agenda and have to report to an editorial board, which decides what can and can not be published in accordance with their views.
You're thinking of independent journalists, of which there are very few.
And even them have their own biases, no such thing as unbiased journalism.
True, but not for the reasons that most people think.
