Deception
(50%)
The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author claims that Jennifer Leak died at 76 but fails to mention her birth year which would have been useful for readers to understand how old she was when she passed away. Secondly, the author quotes Tim Matheson as saying that Jennifer Leak D'Auria was his ex-wife without providing any context or explanation of their relationship. This could be misleading to readers who may not know about their history together.

Lastly, the author quotes James D'Auria as saying that his wife was shy and private in real life but became electric when she was on camera which contradicts the statement made earlier about Jennifer Leak being a strong and lovely woman.
