Game is rigged — it indicates bias (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ageism

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'it indicates bias' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'game is rigged' is the wordplay.
'rigged' indicates an anagram.
'game'+'is'='gameis'
'gameis' with letters rearranged gives 'AGEISM'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ageism that I've seen before include "Prejudice or bias against old people" , "Prejudice against senior citizens" , "Prejudice against older people" , "Prejudice on grounds of age" , "Non-PC attitude to senior citizens" .)
