Answer:
People use facts to create their own opinions about a certain topic. Opinions can carry a bias and may be judged by who is giving them. Journalists will often use a mix of facts and people's opinions when covering a story. Readers can use the facts to learn more about the story and can use the opinions to spark the formation of their own opinion.
Explanation:
- One reason it is so important for our students to learn to differentiate between fact and opinion is that this ability is a stepping stone to detecting bias in a text. Students begin to evaluate a text for bias by first identifying how much of the text is fact-based and how much is based on opinion.
