Is it possible to write something without bias?

Answer 1

only if the writer has no brain to think with. If someone thinks, they form opinions on what they think about. With opinions comes judgement and bias

Answer 2

Not really, but it's possible to write something so that your bias is undetectable, and such that the reader will not be swayed one way or another by what you say.

We all have opinions, and we cannot help writing under the influence of those opinions, but we are intelligent enough to be able to tell, upon reading what we've written, whether the reader will be able to tell what our opinion is. A good rule of thumb when trying to write without bias is to try to write so that your reader will not be able to guess what your opinion is. If all of the possibilities are given careful and fair scrutiny, there is no reason why our biases should hinder us from writing fairly and objectively.

Answer 3

How do you define the word "bias?" Anyway, there is a method which Husserl proposes in order to be able to know the reality of an object of inquiry which he calls epoche. it is through "bracketing" any "prior" ideas concerning your object of inquiry and then writhing down what you merely see. I think also is one way of writing without the so-called "bias." Possible? I think so.

Answer 4

Yes, by objective writing (e.g. news writing). Focus on the issue and not on those involved in the issue. Present the facts or data straigthforward. Keep personal opinion out of it. Do not editorialize. By experience, its difficult to keep one's bias/biases in writing. It takes self-discipline but it can be done.

Answer 5

That would depend on what the subject is. I think I could write that my lamp is currently turned on or that I'm sitting in a chair without any bias. However, I think that our worldviews color much of what we write about.

Answer 6

Facts can be written without bias but really nothing else.

Answer 7

Yes, but that which can be known objectively is usually a matter of definition. The empiricists think that when rationalists get excited about "2 + 2 = 4," they might as well be getting excited about "All bachelors are unmarried."

A term that may be worth mentioning is tautology, which can mean "needlessly repetitious" in some contexts and "a statement that is always true" in others.

Answer 8

Any book that presents just the facts on a certain subject.
Some biographies, historical retrospectives, any how-to
books, mysteries, and third person narratives that may
include other people's biases but not the authors.

Answer 9

yes it is if you only write what happened, a leaf fell just write that it fell not why or how just that it did and when it did. facts are not bias.

Answer 10

I think so. One can be indifferent. They could know both sides and still not sway either way.
