Every morning, we triple-check headlines, stories, and sources for bias. All by hand with no algorithms.

If reality were so easily determined, there'd be no need for professional scientists; nothing would ever need to be tested; we'd all just be able to take exactly equal measures of opposing ideas, and the truth would be the perfect blend of them. The universe would never be found to be consistently described more accurately by any other method. No injustice could ever exist so long as there were centrists around to make a good faith effort to get to the bottom of things.
