Final Answer :
E
Explanation :
The best way good communicators can eliminate the use of potentially biased language is by changing biased language to neutral language. This ensures that their communication is inclusive and does not create any unintended biases or prejudices. Using biased language to identify stereotypes or reinforcing the "you" attitude may not necessarily address all forms of biases and may still perpetuate discriminatory behavior. Correcting one area of bias at a time may take a longer time and may not be comprehensive in addressing all forms of biases. Therefore, changing biased language to neutral language is the most effective way to eliminate potentially biased language.
