Their goal is to appear neutral, as opposed to objectively reporting the truth.

For example, imagine if you and I ran a race and you won by a large margin, but I refused to accept my loss.

An objective report would be that you won easily. A neutral report would be that both of us claim to have won. This is a false neutrality, of course.
