              • Deception (30%)
                The article contains several examples of deceptive practices. Firstly, the author uses sensationalism by stating that Bobbie Jean Carter has died at the age of 41, without providing any context or background information about her life. This statement is meant to grab the reader's attention and create a sense of urgency, but it is not accurate or informative. Secondly, the author uses selective reporting by focusing on Bobbie Jean's involvement in the family's music business and reality TV show, while ignoring other aspects of her life such as her addiction and legal troubles. This creates a one-sided view of Bobbie Jean and her impact on the Carter family, without providing a complete picture. Thirdly, the author uses emotional manipulation by quoting Jane Carter's statement about the loss of her daughter and granddaughter, which is intended to evoke sympathy and empathy from the reader. However, this statement is not directly related to the article's topic and serves as an attempt to pull at the reader's emotions. Finally, the author uses false claims by stating that Bobbie Jean suffered from addiction and substance abuse over the years, without providing any evidence or sources to support this claim. This creates a sense of authority and expertise, but it is not based on factual information.
