Exactly. A reporter who shows his bias or otherwise is not objective is not a reporter; he's a commentator, and should describe himself as such. I'm a reporter, and I would dare anyone who doesn't know me to correctly describe my political views by reading my news stories. Jennings, et al., couldn't say the same.
