Answer 14

wouldn't it be E, because it is taking on both sides instead of just one?

Answer 15

It would be E, but not for that reason. See, E talks about what they report, not an opinion about them. Either of these would also be absent of bias:

Some Gleegons report being happy
Some Gorps report being happy

It is just discussing a fact, what they report, and drawing no untested results.
