Solution

When evaluating a source for bias, the following questions would be helpful to ask:

  1. What is the purpose of the source?
  2. Does the source treat all sides of the issue fairly?
  3. Does the source ignore any contradictory arguments?

The question "Do I agree with the source's opinions?" is not a helpful question to ask when evaluating a source for bias. This is because whether or not you agree with the source's opinions is subjective and can introduce your own biases into the evaluation. The goal of evaluating a source for bias is to objectively assess the source, not to confirm your own beliefs or opinions.
