How to use "Dis-interested" in context?
Dis-interested parties often arise in disputes - whether they're friends arguing about a movie they both want to see, or business rivals fighting over market share.

The key to ensuring thedis-interested parties have as little impact on the dispute as possible is for each side to understand their role. The proponent - or side that is supported by evidence and logic - should be open and transparent about the evidence they have and why they believe it's relevant.
