"City Disavows Pastor's Talk of Burning Koran" - 1 views

  •  
    "Educated and progressive, with a gay mayor and a City Commission made up entirely of Democrats, Gainesville is a sprawling metropolis of 115,000 people where smoothie shops seem to outnumber gun shops." The bias here is obvious: on the educated side are "a gay mayor and a City Commission made up entirely of Democrats." By innuendo, this means that the gun shops owners and Republicans are not educated.

    I found Bias in the very first paragraph of this article. The writer of this article is seeming bias against France. They are saying that france is the first to do this, and they are saying that they are taking such a measure and that it should not go that far, without coming out and saying it.

Not necessarily bias, but mention of a rhetorical technique.
