  • Unique Points
    • OJ Simpson is alleged to have stalked Nicole Brown Simpson in the weeks leading up to her death.
    • Nicole called a domestic violence helpline just five days before she was killed and spoke of OJ’s violent tendencies.
    • In early 1994, Nicole confided in Faye Resnick that OJ was spying on her and hiding in the bushes.
    • Robin Greer claimed that Simpson broke into Brown’s previous rental home and attacked her after seeing her with another man through the living room window.
  • Accuracy
    No Contradictions at Time Of Publication
  • Deception (30%)
    The article contains selective reporting as it only reports details that support the author's position. The author does not provide any evidence or quotes from peer-reviewed studies to back up the claims made in the article. Instead, they rely on anecdotal evidence from friends of Nicole Brown Simpson. Additionally, there is emotional manipulation through the use of phrases like 'he was watching all the time' and 'she always thought he was gonna hurt her'. The author also uses sensational language such as 'stalked' and 'harassed' to create a dramatic effect.
    • The mom-of-two confided in her friend that OJ was
  • Fallacies (80%)
    The author uses inflammatory rhetoric by stating that OJ Simpson 'stalked' Nicole Brown Simpson and 'harassed' her. This is an appeal to emotion and can be considered an informal fallacy. The author also quotes Faye Resnick saying that OJ was 'spying on her a lot' and 'stalking, hiding in the bushes.' These statements are being reported as facts, but they are actually assertions made by the interviewee. This can be considered a dichotomous depiction if it is implied that OJ could not have been near Brown without stalking her. However, there is no clear evidence presented in the article that OJ was actually hiding in the bushes or stalking Nicole Brown Simpson at the time she was murdered.
    • OJ Simpson is alleged to have "stalked" Nicole Brown Simpson, going so far as to stake out the bushes near the home where she was murdered in 1994, close friends of Brown's have said in a new docuseries.
    • Resnick recalled that in early 1994, shortly after Brown purchased the townhouse on South Bundy Drive in Brentwood, Los Angeles, where she would later be found dead, the mom-of-two confided in her friend that OJ was "spying on her a lot."
    • Greer spoke about an incident a few months prior, in October 1993, in which she claimed that Simpson broke into Brown's previous rental home and attacked her after seeing her with another man through the living room window.
    • If you're hiding in the bushes and you're looking, you can see them kissing on the couch, and that's apparently what OJ was doing.
  • Bias (80%)
    The author reports on allegations made by friends of Nicole Brown Simpson that OJ Simpson stalked her in the weeks leading up to her death. The language used to describe OJ's actions, such as 'stalking', 'hiding in the bushes', and 'watching all the time', implies a bias against OJ.
    • He was realizing that she was becoming happy.
      • If you’re hiding in the bushes and you’re looking, you can see them kissing on the couch, and that’s apparently what OJ was doing.

        • Fallacies (95%)
          The author does not make any explicit fallacious statements in the article. However, there are some instances of inflammatory rhetoric and appeals to emotion. The title of the article itself, 'The Life & Murder of Nicole Brown Simpson wants you to see her as more than just a victim', is an appeal to emotion as it attempts to elicit sympathy for Nicole Brown by framing her as more than just a victim. Additionally, the author quotes Denise and Dominique Brown expressing anger about how the media depicted Nicole, which can be seen as inflammatory rhetoric. However, these instances do not significantly detract from the overall quality of the article and do not warrant a significant reduction in score.
