the Bayeux tapestry was biased because...
- It was written in William's perspective
- It was produced by nuns who were not part of the Battle, and therefore they would have just based their knowledge by hearing it.
- The tapestry was build in France (Normandy) meaning that all the information used to make the tapestry was passed on by others and had probably been changed along the way.
