Deception
(80%)
The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the title implies that Clark Hunt has been ranked as the worst owner in NFL history when he was only given an F-minus rating by players. Secondly, the author uses sensationalism to make it seem like there are major issues with facilities and staff at Kansas City Chiefs despite their recent successes. Thirdly, the article quotes sources without disclosing them which is a violation of rule 3.

The article contains examples of religious bias and monetary bias. The author uses language that depicts one side as extreme or unreasonable by saying 'despite their crazy run'. This is an example of using language to create a negative impression on the Chiefs owner Clark Hunt. Additionally, the article mentions that players are frustrated with their workplace offerings, especially after sustained success in recent years. The author does not provide any evidence for this claim and it could be seen as an attempt to discredit the team's ownership by portraying them as stingy or uncaring towards their employees. This is an example of monetary bias.

The Washington Commanders ranked last in a player survey that assessed teams' working conditions.
Despite an ownership change and modest improvements to their facilities, the Washington Commanders again ranked last in a player survey that assessed teams' working conditions. The NFL Players Association released the second set of its annual team report cards Wednesday after canvassing 1,706 players on active rosters and practice squads across the league.
The low grades for the Commanders' facilities aren't surprising; former owner Daniel Snyder invested minimally, resulting in a dilapidated stadium in Landover and an outdated training facility in Ashburn. The ownership change seemed to leave an impression on the players; Harris ranked 18th among owners, earning a B grade for his willingness to invest in the team's facilities.
The NFLPA stressed that the grades don't necessarily correlate to a team's record.

The Miami Dolphins and Minnesota Vikings claimed the top two spots. The Green Bay Packers, Philadelphia Eagles and Jacksonville Jaguars rounded out the top five. The bottom five: the Pittsburgh Steelers, New England Patriots, Los Angeles Chargers, Kansas City Chiefs and Commanders.
Deception
(30%)
The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author claims that Washington Commanders ranked last again in a player survey conducted by NFL Players Association (NFLPA). However, this statement is misleading because it implies that the Commanders have consistently been at the bottom of all categories. In reality, they only rank last in two categories: locker room and training room. Secondly, the author quotes several players who criticize Washington's facilities but fails to provide any context or perspective on these issues. For example, some players complain about sewage leaks in the locker room without mentioning that this is a common problem among sports teams. Thirdly, the article presents information from previous years as if it were current and relevant when analyzing Washington's performance in 2024. This deception undermines the credibility of the report card and makes it difficult for readers to understand how much progress has been made since last season.
