MABPD: Multi-Agent Bias Probing & Detection via Structured Argument Debate

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.04841v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Media bias in news articles operates through subtle linguistic cues---loaded language, selective framing, and strategic omission---that resist single-model detection and have traditionally required large annotated corpora for supervised training. We ask whether structured multi-agent deliberation can serve as a principled, training-free alternative to supervised classification for this task. We introduce MABPD (Multi-Agent Bias Probing & Detection), a pipeline in which three specialized LLM agents analyze an article from complementary perspectives and resolve disagreements through a Structured Argument Debate (SAD) protocol. SAD implements a domain-motivated asymmetric burden of proof---biased claims without grounded textual evidence carry
