Good discussion of the depth of questions we should ask of primary sources. You're right that different sources contain different levels of bias. In general terms, would a primary or a secondary source be most likely to contain bias? Why? Or, maybe that's not quite the right question. What different types of biases might we find in primary sources vs secondary sources?
