BIAS & PREJUDICE
WHAT IS BIAS? Bias means a tendency to favor one person, group, thing or point of view over another, often in an unfair way.
WHAT IS BIAS? To be truly biased means to lack a neutral viewpoint on a particular topic. Somewhere along the line, bias took on a negative connotation.
WHAT IS BIAS? If you are biased toward something, then you lean favorably toward it; you tend to think positively on it. On the other hand, if you are biased against something, then you lean negatively against it; you tend to think poorly on it.
EXAMPLES OF BIASES
EXAMPLE 1 (BIAS) Example: In other Christian sectors, the preacher position is only given to males and not to females. Explanation: In this example, males are given more power or authority than females.
EXAMPLE 2 (BIAS) Example: Sectarian schools only accept students who share the same religious beliefs. Explanation: In this example, students who are interested to study in a school but don’t share the same religion can’t be admitted.
EXAMPLE 3 (BIAS) Margie, an office clerk at Marco Polo Hotel for seven years, was not given a promotion simply because she is a woman.

EXAMPLE 5 (BIAS) Abraham Lincoln accused newspapers in border states of being biased against the South. He ordered many of them to be shut down.
