fair coverage

Unbiased media treatment

Fair coverage is reporting or treatment that represents multiple perspectives without obvious bias toward one side.

The term appears most often in discussions of journalism and media: The network promised fair coverage of both candidates.

Fair coverage doesn't necessarily mean equal time—it means proportionate, accurate representation of the relevant viewpoints.
