An example of bias in media is a website that presents a controversial opinion as though it were fact. To identify this bias, you can look for language that is overly assertive and lacking in supporting evidence or counterarguments. Additionally, the website may ignore or downplay alternative perspectives or present biased information selectively to support their own opinion.
It is important to be critical of the information presented and to gather information from multiple sources to gain a more comprehensive and balanced understanding of a topic. Consulting reliable and diverse sources can help you identify any biases and make informed judgments.
