Observer

To look at a subject through multiple personalities, often with the result of contradicting one's self.

Tony#242: "That hockey team sucks. No matter what they do, they'll never, ever be good."

Tony#243: "I agree. It would take at least two trades to make them a winner."

Tony#242: "Woah... I think that I just pulled an observer on myself."

Observer Blind Spot Bias

A form of bias affecting even those attempting neutrality, where an observer (a journalist, a reviewer, a judge) subconsciously filters information to only register data that confirms their pre-existing narrative or desired outcome. They believe they're being fair, but their perception has a "spot" that's blind to inconvenient facts. This is especially dangerous because the observer's perceived impartiality lends false credibility to their skewed interpretation.

Example: A journalist covering a polarizing protest aims for neutrality. However, due to Observer Blind Spot Bias, they only see and report on the handful of violent acts by one side, framing the entire event as a riot, while their blind spot prevents them from even noticing the peaceful majority and the provocative actions of police, crafting a "balanced" report that's subtly biased.

Fishery Observer

A scientist who thinks that working on fishing boats counting and identifying numerous types of fish and marine species is a pretty sweet job. Doesn't enjoy getting seasick, but still spends at least 3 months of the year up in the Bering Sea, trying not to get sick while seeing more fish than most people will ever eat in a lifetime!

Everybody should be a fishery observer, but only those with a strong stomach can stick with it.

Political Observer

An unaffiliated individual, neither Conservative nor Liberal, who acknowledges the hypocrisy of both or all parties, and gets chewed out by pointing their own flaws they refuse to acknowledge.

Liberal and Conservative thoughts: Pfft. Political Observer? They're just a Liberal/Conservative staying in the closet.
