Respuesta :

the right answer is c

The most likely cause of appearing the news to be 'biased' would be:

C). The reporter is writing about a topic that she or he already knows a lot about.

  • A report, text, or news has the probability of being biased or offering prejudiced content only when the author includes his/her individual opinion, thoughts, point of view, or emotions to it.
  • This removes the objectivity and credibility of the text and makes it biased as it favors the point liked by the author himself/herself.
  • As per the question, in case a news reporter begins writing content for news he/she is known or familiar with, it might lead to bringing biased news as it will involve his/her personal opinion regarding the issue.
  • This would directly impact the news' validity and objectivity. Thus, option C is the correct answer.
