When people accuse an argument of being "biased", I think what they're trying to say is that the author has deliberately ignored factual information that would go some way to disproving the claims they're trying to make. That is, key facts (that the author should acknowledge in order to make a "stronger" case) have been ignored or omitted.
Nonetheless, this isn't really "bias" (or no more "biased" than even the best put together "argument"), merely stupidity. |
Yes, you're probably right. But, rather than merely accusing the argument of being "biased" (or at least in addition to it), I'd like to see them actually point out the factual information which disproves the claims made that argument.
