The intent was to demonstrate bias. When you compare the leading stories from the various sites to CNN's lead stories, the bias on CNN is easy to spot.
IN WaPo's case, you state every story is legit. I'm not sure I completely agree.
For example of a speculative news item with an editorial spin in the headline: "Mueller report — and a new political firestorm — may be imminent". Is the report imminent? Who knows? Will it create a "political firestorm"? Maybe. Is it a story worthy of front page, leading story treatment? Don't think so, but apparently WaPo and CNN do. Is it a factual story that would demand that the paper write a retraction if it turns out that the facts are wrong? It should, but WaPo / CNN probably won't bother.
