Deception
(30%)
The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author claims that Southwest Airlines stock is on the radar after a safety incident but fails to mention any other incidents or accidents that have occurred recently. This statement implies that this latest incident is unique and significant when it fact there have been multiple incidents over the past month.
The article states 'Southwest has not yet confirmed when the plane, which entered service in 2015, last had maintenance but said it was investigating the incident.' However, this statement implies that Southwest may have been negligent or careless with their maintenance procedures. This is an example of emotional manipulation.
The article states 'Southwest lower its current-quarter and full-year outlook in March, citing reduced capacity from fewer Boeing deliveries.' However, the author fails to mention that this reduction in capacity was due to a global shortage of semiconductors which affected many industries not just Southwest Airlines. This is an example of selective reporting.
The article states 'Shares in low-cost carrier Southwest Airlines (LUV) may find support around $22.70 from the November 2023 low, and resistance near $38 from the July 2023 countertrend peak.' However, this statement is not supported by any technical analysis or data provided in the article. This is an example of sensationalism.
Fallacies
(70%)
The article contains several examples of informal fallacies. The author uses an appeal to authority by citing the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as a source for information about the safety incident. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but it does suggest that the author may be relying too heavily on external sources rather than providing their own analysis or expertise. Additionally, there are several instances where the author uses inflammatory rhetoric to describe Southwest Airlines and its recent incidents. For example, they refer to
The latest safety concern for the carrier comes just days after the airline reported that an engine fire caused one of its planes to cancel takeoff and return to the gate in Lubbock, Texas.
It also follows an incident in March where one of the airline's planes veered off course as it approached New York's LaGuardia Airport, causing it to come into close proximity with an air traffic control tower during landing.
Bias
(85%)
The article contains multiple examples of bias. The author uses language that dehumanizes the passengers on the flight by referring to them as 'customers' rather than people. This is an example of disproportionate numbers and a lack of empathy for those affected by the incident.
The FAA also said it is investigating the mishap.
