Humblewashing

Misleading or deceptive publicity disseminated by an organization so as to present a humble or wholesome public image whilst commiting morally dubious acts.

This can also be demonstrated by claiming neutrality in (typically) political and/or social debates among today's society when infact the organization doesn't claim neutrality in the first place.
