Interesting point, but I saw a judge took that to the extreme with a libel suit against Rachael Maddow, by saying no one would ever think she was offering news, only her opinion, thus no one would ever believe her. But people often believe things they've been told, even when it comes from people who are clearly not objective on the matter, so perhaps the judge was wrong.

That ruling was used later to defend Tucker Carlson for basically the same thing. A good way to tell if a source is left or right leaning is to see which of those stories they reported on and how.
