Not true. People from Washington and Oregon have very little accent.

I live in Oregon, tons of people here do this. "Bag" sounds like "beg."

People really don't hear it well when they live in it. It's natural

I think it's pretty clear there is a "neutral" American accent. Lots of people don't speak with one,
