Where mine live

Pick one strongly held opinion of yours on a contested public question. Then apply the biases to yourself rather than to the people who disagree.

The opinion, stated plainly.

Where does most of your information on it come from? Do those sources broadly agree with each other?

When did you last examine a claim on your own side as hard as you examine theirs?

Is a vivid story or a single case doing more work in your view than the numbers do?

Name three specific ways your biases might be shaping this opinion.
