News articles should be treated as political. They always have a built in narrative and bias. Including this article.

By that logic shouldn't any post anyone makes on Facebook be treated as political?

"Buy more Coca-cola" or "10 reasons why Coca-cola is actually good for you" are examples of advertisement posts and articles that aren't political.

Of course they are. Don't you know that Coca Cola created Fanta for Nazi Germany because trade embargos meant they couldn't make Coke? Why, they're practically Nazi collaborators!

...my point is that politics is everywhere, whether you like it or not.
