This question almost answers itself. In any type of research or publishing information about an event such as when it took place, and -or why it took place requires due diligence when using the information.

A source of information that is known to be biased, does not present a fair and balanced view of the topic at hand.

In many cases a biased piece of information can be revealed by comparing it with other sources of information on the same topic. In other cases it just takes what can be called old fashioned common sense. Example: You are researching the causes of the US Civil War. You come across a piece of information written by Confederate President Jefferson Davis.

Davis insinuates that the Civil War is the fault of the Union because most Northern States did not have slavery. This would not be accurate based on other sources, and it seems biased as it is coming from a source that clearly has a biased view of the War.
