Bias refers to a leaning or partiality toward a particular viewpoint, opinion, or perspective. It involves the presence of prejudice or preconceived notions that can influence judgments or decisions. Bias can manifest in various forms, such as personal, social, cultural, or political biases. It can also be seen in the way information is presented, including the use of emotional words and visuals that evoke strong feelings. In contrast, objective information is factual and verifiable without any subjective influence or preference.
