It may possibly be D confirmation bias.
Confirmation bias is favoring information that conforms with a currently existing belief, or a tendency to interpret new evidence as confirmation of one’s existing beliefs or theories. I’m not sure this is the correct answer though, so you might want to have someone else double check it or give their opinion as well.
