Explanation:

Question 1

Media bias refers to the tendency of media to present information with partiality, favoring a particular viewpoint. Neutral reporting (A) and balanced perspectives (D) are the opposite of bias. Lack of coverage (C) is about absence of reporting, not bias. So the correct option is B.

Biased reporting distorts facts, which misleads audiences. Strengthening trust (A) is not caused by bias. Promoting diverse perspectives (C) and encouraging voter engagement (D) are positive impacts, while biased reporting has negative effects on democracy. So the correct option is B.

Media bias can manifest through story selection, where certain stories are chosen to promote a bias. Neutral tone (A) and balanced coverage (D) are unbiased. Lack of reporting (C) is different from bias in presentation. So the correct option is B.

Answer:

B)Partiality in presenting information
