How do you do this in a country with more than 2 political parties such as the United States [1].

There is no reason to make long-term decisions based on the current short-term circumstances of a two party dominance.

It's also very hard to change because both major parties benefit from the existing system and are protective of it, knowing full well that proportional representation would cost them a lot of votes. Republicans usually trot out the old "but small states!" canard, while Democrats are getting creative and claiming that IRV and RCV are racist because e.g. "majority voting may seem innocuous, but if the vote is racially polarized, “runoffs discriminate against Blacks because they are a minority of the voters.”"
Given that Congress has the final say on how federal elections are run, I find it rather unlikely that this is going to change anytime soon - at least, not as long as federal politics is consumed almost entirely by polarization and voting against rather than for.
Really, since America had a meaningful national government with the Constitution rather than being a loose federation of states under the AoC.
The Federalists and Democratic-Republicans both were establisged, as was their duopoly, by 1792.
But speaking to your point, there is no reason at all why a two party system is required to have a rule of thumb that if everyone thinks you're biased you're on the right track...
Your solution on how to cover a topic in a neutral fashion when there are more than 2 political parties is to move to a country where there are more than 2 political parties?
That doesn't seem like a productive comment.
I guess I didn't include enough elaboration in my comment...
There are 3 major federal parties (Liberals, Conservatives, NDP), who received 33%, 33%, and 18% of the popular vote respectively.
There are two minor federal parties (Greens and the People’s party) who together took around 7% of the popular vote, and
Finally there is the Bloc Québécois. It is a federal party but it exists only in one province. It grabbed around 8% last time.
Of course those percentages aren’t entirely representative, because seats are won in a first-past-the-post style in each riding.
