I would just like to point out, for the record, that the notion of an
objective press is a recent invention.  In most other countries, the
press is entirely partisan, and they consider that to be a good
thing.  In more developed countries, the national broadcaster is
supposed to be independent and objective, as much to avoid stepping on
anyone else's turf as from any particular devotion to the idea of
objectivity.
