Perhaps they are not trying to convince you that there is more bias than you think (which would require evidence), but just reminding you that it does exist and is probably not being adequately compensated for? If we agree that a problem exists, then we should welcome such reminders (at least until we find some other way to solve the problem).
You can do that on a case-by-case basis, but the problem is that accusations of groupthink are too easy.
Edit: Come to think of it, it wouldn't be a good boo-light if it wasn't easy to make the accusation.
