I love the Guardian newspaper in England. Why? Because I can read news reports and editorial without foaming at the mouth due to the fact that reporting bias/views expressed are informed by a world view similar to my own, more often than not... hence relatively acceptable, in the main.
Keep in mind an "informed world view similar to yours" isn't any less biased. You think it's right and more of a "world view" for the same reasons. Is it a truly informed world view, or do you believe it a world view because you think yours are world views, and it reflects your thoughts?
Everyone's opinions color their perception.
