There are levels to bias. Even the so-called official sources you reference can contain bias. Often there are two sides to an argument. Considering both sides of an argument is important. I.E. Republican perspective vs. Democratic. Left-wing vs Right wing, Conservative vs Liberal, etc.

Agreed, that's very true

Answer 5

If you notice the following, the source may be biased:
Heavily opinionated or one-sided.
Relies on unsupported or unsubstantiated claims.
Presents highly selected facts that lean to a certain outcome.
Pretends to present facts, but offers only opinion.
Uses extreme or inappropriate language.
