What is the term for someone having bias based on who delivers the reasoning?

I've noticed a tendency in some cases where people will respond irrationally based on who delivers the arguments in a discussion, rather than the arguments being rational or not. What is the term for this phenomenon? Its some sort of bias, but which?|||I will suggest is reasonably bias|||orejudice - you are deciding acceptance of the argument based on something other than the evidence - in this case the speaker.



also a form of bigotry.
