The Associated Press News Thursday, 28 March 2024 04:03Unique Points
- , setting a record for the biggest haul for a political event, his campaign said. The eye-popping amount was a major show of Democratic support for Biden at a time of persistently low poll numbers.
- Former President Barack Obama and Former President Bill Clinton will also be in attendance.
Accuracy
- The article states that the fundraiser is a major show of Democratic support for Biden at a time of persistently low poll numbers. However, an alternative source claims that President Trump has already proved with his 2016 win over Democrat Hillary Clinton that he didn't need to raise the most money to seize the presidency.
- The article states that Obama and Clinton will also be in attendance at the fundraiser. An alternative source does not mention their presence, but instead reports on other events happening around the same time.
Deception (50%)
The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, it states that the fundraiser raised a whopping $25 million which sets a record for political events. However, this statement is misleading as it does not provide context on what constitutes a 'whopping' amount and how much other political events have raised previously.- The article mentions that more money gets donors more intimate time with the presidents. This implies that there are different tiers of access depending on donor generosity, but no further details are provided about these tiers or what they entail.

Fallacies (85%)
The article contains several fallacies. The first is an appeal to authority when it states that the event will be a gilded exclamation mark on a recent burst of presidential campaign travel. This statement implies that the presidents are endorsing Biden and their attendance at the fundraiser lends credibility to his campaign, which is not necessarily true. The second fallacy is an inflammatory rhetoric when it states that Trump has already proved with his 2016 win over Democrat Hillary Clinton that he didn't need to raise the most money to seize the presidency. This statement implies that raising money for a campaign is unnecessary and ignores other factors such as voter turnout, messaging, and ground game. The third fallacy is an appeal to emotion when it states that thousands are expected and tickets are as low as $225. This statement creates a sense of urgency for donors to contribute money to the campaign, which can be manipulative.- The event will be a gilded exclamation mark on a recent burst of presidential campaign travel.
