  • Accuracy

  • Deception (50%)
    The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author claims that Taylor Swift was starstruck during her opening night of The Eras Tour in Australia. However, this statement contradicts itself as it implies that Swift is not capable of being starstruck herself. Secondly, the article quotes a fan who says they don't know where Swift gets her energy from and she performed for hours without stopping. This quote suggests that Swift has superhuman abilities which is not true. Lastly, the article mentions that it costs nearly $1 million to replace Melbourne Cricket Ground's turf after Taylor Swift's concert but does not provide any context or evidence to support this claim.
