There are a lot of different words to describe positive tones. A writer can have a celebratory attitude, or she can have a hopeful, excited or reflective tone. Admiring, lighthearted and sympathetic are positive tones, too. On the other hand, a negative tone could be frantic, selfish, bitter or skeptical. Even if the tone isn't positive or negative, there is still a tone. Every piece of writing has one. Sometimes, the tone can be neutral. You might describe a neutral tone as impartial or objective.
Which of the following passages has the most objective tone?

The people of Nome, Alaska were in big trouble in 1925. It was up to the dogs to save them.
The hero dogs in Nome, Alaska, did what no pilot could do: they brought medicine to the town.
