Secondly, the author uses sensationalism by stating that Stiles welcomed her third child without providing any details about the new addition to her family such as its name or sex.

  • Fallacies (85%)

Thirdly, the author claims that being a parent has been great training for Stiles as a director, but there is no evidence provided to support this claim either.

  • Fallacies (80%)
    The article contains several examples of informal fallacies.

    • The article contains several examples of informal fallacies.
  • Bias (80%)
    The author has a clear bias towards the subject of their article. They frequently use phrases such as 'stayed true to the ideals of her most famous character' and 'participating in the norms just because they are the norms has never been her thing'. These statements suggest that Julia Stiles is someone who values authenticity and independence, which could be seen as a positive trait. However, it also suggests that she may not conform to societal expectations or follow mainstream trends. Additionally, there are several instances where the author uses language such as 'nourishes' and 'guide', which suggest a maternalistic tone towards Stiles' role in directing her film.
    • Maybe you didn’t know Stiles had gotten into directing. Her feature, Wish You Were Here, doesn’t yet have a release date and has only been lightly covered.
      • On the second day of shooting, her supervisor told her to stop apologizing.
        • Over a two-hour lunch at Jack's Wife Freda in the West Village (likely place to spot a celebrity) though unlikely for said celebrity to have gone to school just a few blocks away at P.S. 3, as Stiles did (she declined to do the standard-issue celebrity birth promotion)
