Can the polarity of light be changed by influencing it's magnetic field? I know most people just run unpolarized light through a physical filter, but could you expose light to some magnetic field and change the direction of the electric field?

Intuitively, I'd say yes this is possible but I'm not actually sure. I ask because I saw that study about the birds and magnetoreception.
