A newspaper publishes an article attacking U.S. policy makers for deciding to stop purchasing a certain type of advanced helicopter for the U.S. Army. He claims that having fewer advanced helicopters will put American troops at risk and weaken the United States' influence around the world. Which of the following, if true, would most likely indicate that the article was unfairly biased against the decision?

I believe the answer is: B.It was written by the owner of a factory that produces the helicopters.
One strong indicator of a biased article would be if the writer of the articles would reap a certain benefit from the response of the writing.
If the article above is written by one of the factory owners, it could help his factory to increase the total sales.
