MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

Is this excerpt biased or unbiased?

biased

unbiased

Answer explanation

This is BIASED (leaning towards one side of an issue; having subjectivity towards the topic that affects the validity of the information).


Even though the excerpt from the website contains facts, it only provides ONE side of the issue of charter schools, the ADVANTAGES.

It does NOT go into the "other" sides or perspectives that people may have, such as DISADVANTAGES or CONCERNS.
