I usually listen to NPR. They have news here and there, both local, national and world. They seemed to be more neutral than other radio news sources. Can't stand listening to Perry. Yeah, he leans right, but hate his personal commentary he always adds. Just give me the facts.
NPR does cover what I call "stories" about unique stuff. Lately, the are doing more interviews with people like former officials on both sides. Yeah, the questions seem to be left leaning, but I also enjoy hearing from people from both sides. We discussed here before, but it seems like the left responds like drones. Sticking to a script and not really answering the questions. Listen to any interview with Tulsi Gabbard.

I've found that their firearm related stories are so full of inaccuracies that I just had to assume all their stories are equally as inaccurate. They once said that firearms can be bought at any gunshow in the US, even from dealers, without any background check. That's such an easy thing to look up it suggests conscious manipulation of facts. I refuse to fall to the "Gell-Mann Amnesia effect" so I just cant listen to them anymore.
They also love to do stories where they find one example of why something is they think is bad. For example, they will have a story about an illegal immigrant tried to file worker's comp claims and got arrested. They list all the terrible things that happened to her and her family for this. But they never tell stories about the illegal immigrants who steal a social security number for identity theft and then proceed to make a innocent's life miserable.
This is a form of confirmation bias where they are referencing only those perspectives that fuel their pre-existing views. If they are doing it on purpose it is to manipulate their listeners. If they are doing it on accident then they dont have any non-biased editorial review.
Speaking of which, they have a ombudsman who is supposed to be a non-biased reviewer who deals with complaints about NPR being biased. Just for an experiment I contacted her about a trend in left leaning reports (I dont want them leaning any way - to be completely neutral). Her response was just to defend NPR just like a PR agent would. I got no sense of her being un-biased at all and not even willing to address my question
So I agree with London808 above. There is no un-biased news
