Bias is when you like one person or group more than another.

So, if you are asked about a friend, you might be more likely to say something positive, and about an enemy, you would be more likely to say something negative because you have already made up your mind about these people. It's sort of like discrimination, except discrimination is usually intentional, and sometimes bias we feel and act on without even realizing we are doing it, preferring people who are more like us.
