There are more than just 'two sides' to any given issue, but I guess that is just your dichotomous bias coming to light. Two things for you to (hopefully) think about. First is that everything is biased. That is just a consequence of humans telling stories. Our language is full of value-laden dichotomies, so you cannot speak English without expressing a bias.

Second is that information that is 'biased' is not just something to be automatically rejected. That is totally absurd in light of the fact that everything has a bias. It is up to the reader to tease out what has been said, what has not been said, whose story is being told, what is the preferred viewpoint implicit in the telling, what language was chosen to describe the events and so on. Whatever happened to reading something and evaluating its merits by yourself? Or do you prefer to get it from an 'authoritative' source so that you can just let it slide into your wetware with minimal processing?
