Question

which of the following is an example of a biased source?
a primarily fact - based article for an academic journal
a debate that presents both sides of a controversial issue
an editorial that only gives the writer’s opinion on a timely topic
an article with quotations from diverse thinkers on a political issue

Explanation:

A biased source shows a one - sided perspective. A fact - based academic journal article (first option) is objective. A debate presenting both sides (second option) is balanced. An article with diverse thinkers' quotations (fourth option) is balanced. An editorial that only gives the writer’s opinion (third option) is one - sided, so it's a biased source.

Answer:

C. an editorial that only gives the writer’s opinion on a timely topic
