          • Deception (50%)
            The article is deceptive in that it presents Lady Gaga's voice as the only example of Harley Quinn's voice. The author does not mention any other voices or interpretations of the character and implies that this version will be different from what fans are used to hearing.

The author also uses inflammatory rhetoric when describing the character's vocals as 'seemingly non-accented'. Additionally, there is an example of a dichotomous depiction in the article where Harley Quinn is described as both sensual and breathy, which contradicts each other.

            • The iconic character's vocals have changed over the years depending on who's voicing her, Harley Quinn has usually been portrayed with a Brooklyn accent thanks to voice actress Arleen Sorkin.
