Based on the below description, would it be likely that a journalist writing in “gonzo” form would have a large amount of bias present in his/her work?
The notion that journalists should strive to remain objective has been challenged in recent years as new reporting styles have come into vogue. For instance, a novel style of journalism, known as “gonzo journalism”, emerged in the 1970s. This form, which remains popular today, is characterized by a punchy style, rough and occasionally sarcastic language, and an apparent disregard for conventional journalistic writing customs. Unlike traditional journalists, gonzo journalists use the power of both emotions and personal experience to convey their messages. Rather than adhering to the objectivity prized in standard journalistic writing, they believe in presenting an unedited perspective on the story in “true gonzo” form.

C) Yes, they would because journalistic writing is always biased.
