Yep. No bias, no matter which political side you choose, you just got raw news in any channel.
That was great for objectivity and fairness.
I don't know how you read that into my post.
It is quite different: Having such a limited channel as Teletext one has to be even more selective on the news being reported and then which aspects of it to report.
Over here in Germany I got some TV stations discussing on celebrity news, some station focusing on economy/business news, others on political things, some in sports.
But yeah, USA has this "two sides" issue with a touch of zero sum (it's always either this or that side and either helping one or the other side)
The constant belief by people that somehow, if you remove information, you reduce bias is insane.
I assure you, Pravda could fit it's biases, lies, propaganda, and omissions in 160 characters. Bullshit has always been easy to shrink.
It is nuance, context, framing, etc that you are eschewing in your mistaken belief of "no bias".
