ENG 105 Topic 5 DQ 1
Go back to your readings in Chapter 4 of the text on bias.
Reread the information to help you answer this question.
Remember that bias can be found on a website.
View the website noted
here: www.biblebelievers.org.au/holohoax.htm.
What indications do you have that the site is biased or
not biased? List three things that appear to make this site
biased or unbiased. Finally, based on the criteria you
have been learning about websites, do you believe this
site is true and honest, or does it have an agenda? How
might you address bias in your evaluation essay?
During the week, go back and review your classmates’
posts and discuss similarities and differences between
your response and your peers’ responses?
, This article was very hard for me to read and I found it
very biased. The author is trying to get the reader to fall
into the trap of emotion by trying to enrage people that
the Holocaust did not exist, and that America is paying
Israel billions of dollars a year in retributions, and with
that hard-earned money, we would all be driving around
in a Mercedes Benz. This is a bias statement because no
evidence supports that claim. The author goes on to
state that there was no evidence that cyanide was
present in the scrapings of the gas chamber walls, where
is the documentation or credible information to back that
up? Finally, the author wants us to believe that through
the extensive recording keeping of the Germans, their
solutions were that of deportation, emigration and not of
extermination (biblebelievers). Not one shred of credible
evidence was cited, and the author uses his own
thoughts, theories and emotions to convince the
audience of his point of view. This site is nothing more
than a conspiracy theory and the agenda is to buy into
the nonsense to dispel the real truth behind the
Holocaust.
To keep my essay free of bias I needed to back up my
research with credible sources and cite them. I need to
address the opposing view to validate my argument. I
also need to keep my essay free from opinions and
personal thought.
