Given that "half the truth can be a very big lie," objectivity "lack of bias" is an unprovable negative.

And anyone who claims to be objective is claiming something which they cannot prove, or even properly test for themselves. Such people are less trustworthy than used car salesmen because you may not know exactly what they are trying to sell.
