MODERATORS
As others have said, you can't. Take a walk through any history museum and you'll remember it's events like this that spark change, and the US is on the precipise, with class as the determining factor.
The only people who don't have a bias are those that are ignorant of him, because everyone in the country is impacted. And since they are ignorant, they won't have any news for you to read.
Do you want my biased opinion or unbiased opinion on where to get unbiased information?

The implied claim that historical accounts are unbiased seems tenuous.
Just read whatever you find anywhere and leave out the opinionated bits.
In other words, you can safely assume the hows, whens, wheres and to a certain extent the whys are accurate and not made up, and anything else - particularly whether he was right or wrong, the bits about whether his victim was right or wrong, whether the cops are lying, whether the McD employee is evil, whether Mangione should be freed or fried... is all a bunch of ultra-biased hogwash, regardless of the bias.
Taking the police and reporting organizations at their word that they are giving factual information about the who, what, when, where, and why is also a bias.
All sources have biases. Just find out what each sourcesβ biases are, and you should be okay.
Why not take in many sources and then average out what you hear?
What kind of information do you want to know about him? What do you find biased about whatever you've been reading? It's not very clear how to answer this question.
