Document Summary

Russians won pairs figure skating since 1964. Sale and pelletier first serious competition in long time. N. american public decided to alter the outcome . Media accounts vary by country: russians 50% more likely to say competition was close, twice as likely pro-russian. Americans almost twice as likely to make pro-canadian arguments: btw, french judge said she made a deal with the russians. I see the world as it is : objective reality. Why would you see it differently: uninformed. Different factors contribute to bias: disposition/traits. Others think differently for whatever reason and it leads them to be wrong . Because the other person is: lazy, unintelligent, driven by ideology, values, temperament. Rational, well-meaning individuals can be brought together on a problem and still look at it differently/disagree. Underestimate the ambivalence of the other side. See own position as rational and the other as ideological. Both think other side is driven by irrational ideology.
