  • Accuracy
    No Contradictions at Time Of Publication
  • Deception (50%)
    The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the title of the article implies that Kristen Wiig's Five-Timers Club Party was a special occasion when it wasn't. Secondly, Paul Rudd interrupted her from the audience and asked about a script for an upcoming sketch featuring celebrity cameos which doesn't exist according to Wiig. Thirdly, Matt Damon is shown wearing a Five-Timers jacket despite only hosting twice.
    • The title of the article implies that Kristen Wiig's Five-Timers Club Party was a special occasion when it wasn't.
  • Fallacies (70%)
    The article contains several examples of informal fallacies. The author uses an appeal to authority by citing the creator of SNL as saying that Matt Damon's first hosting was counted for three times and then two times. This is not a reliable source and should be taken with a grain of salt.
    • The “Saturday Night Live” alum remarked on the “special” occasion of hosting the show for the fifth time before Paul Rudd interrupted her from the audience.
    • Former hosts Fred Armisen, Jon Hamm, Will Forte and Martin Short also appeared alongside Michaels while sporting jackets for the club.

  • Bias (85%)
    The article contains several examples of religious bias. The author uses the phrase 'Five-Timers Club' which is a reference to an episode in the TV show 'Saturday Night Live'. This episode features a sketch about Jesus Christ hosting SNL and being inducted into the Five-Timers Club, implying that he has hosted five times on SNL. The author also uses quotes from several celebrities who are members of this club, including Paul Rudd and Matt Damon. These quotes suggest that they have all hosted the show multiple times, which is not accurate as Jesus Christ did not host SNL in real life.
    • Paul Rudd and Matt Damon are members of this club despite being fictional characters on the show
      • The phrase 'Five-Timers Club' used to describe a sketch about Jesus Christ hosting SNL
