                    The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the title of the article implies that Nick Offerman won his first Emmy for The Last of Us when he actually won it for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series. Secondly, the author states that Fortune presents gifts not according to the book which is misleading as there are no references to this statement anywhere else in the article. Thirdly, Offerman's acceptance speech mentions Cromwell and Mullally but does not mention Bartlett who was also nominated for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series. Lastly, the author states that Offerman broke hearts with his performance when he actually received praise from critics for his portrayal of Bill.

                    The article contains an appeal to authority fallacy when it states that Offerman's performance was nominated against four actors from HBO shows. The author also uses inflammatory rhetoric by stating that the category was dominated by nominations for performances on these shows.

                    • Bartlett is not only a double nominee this year, he also earned a 2023 outstanding supporting actor nodulation for playing real-life choreographer Nick De Noia in Hulu's limited series Welcome to Chippendales.
                    • Johnson and Woodard played brave but doomed brothers in episodes 4 and 5 of The Last of Us. Johnson's Henry, a.k.a. 'The Most Wanted Man in Kansas,' would do anything to protect his Deaf younger brother Sam even if it meant taking on the risky mission of helping Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey's travelers Joel and Ellie as they eluded pursuit of a relentless local power player Kathleen (Melanie Lynskey, who is also in the outstanding guest actress race).

                    • Cromwell rounded out his four-season run on the darkly hilarious family drama with a third nomination for portraying Logan Roy's crusty, liberal brother Ewan. Perhaps earning Cromwell this year's nod was his stirring, scathing delivery of an impromptu eulogy for Logan: 'I loved him, I suppose, and I suppose some of you did too... Now and then darkened the skies a little. Closed men’s hearts. Fed that dark flame in men, the hard mean hard-relenting flame that keeps their heart warm while another grows cold.'

                              The author uses language that dehumanizes the hippie character played by Judith Light. The phrase 'a nursing home in Poker Face' implies that the character is not to be taken seriously and is instead a caricature of a person who has lost touch with reality.
