Bias Story



          Last week I wrote a story about Glutathione. It is a chemical that using in medical profession to help people who are alcoholism, asthma, cancer, heart disease, etc. Moreover, people using it for skin whitening. But, I did not write it in the good ways. I used the Media bias call “Bias by Omission” to omitted the good ways of Glutathione. After that I gave the story to my partner to analyze for Bias.
              
          Bibi is my partner. First, she told me that she could not find any Bias is my writing. She explained to me that I have to improve my story. Also, I improved and gave it to her again. This time she told me that I was using many type of Bias, such as:

  • Bias by Labeling: I wrote repeatedly Glutathione it seem bad. I told that Glutathione is very expensive and it could make a cancer, blind and dead.
  • Bias by spin: I described an example case that was dead because Glutathione. In fact, she is dead because another reason.
  • Bias by selection of sources: i mentioned to Dr jang that he was said about Glutathione.
Anyway, I tried to use several Bias in my story. But it not work at all.
