  • Fallacies (85%)
    The article contains an appeal to authority fallacy when the Japanese embassy in Washington assures that Taylor Swift will make it to the Super Bowl on time. The author also uses inflammatory rhetoric by describing fans' worries as 'frett'. Additionally, there is a dichotomous depiction of Taylor Swift being both able to perform her concert and travel from Tokyo to Las Vegas in time for the Super Bowl.
    • The embassy’s Friday statement answered a question weighing on the minds of the pop star’s multitude of fans, who wondered if it was even logistically possible for her to be in position to cheer on Kelce in person as he seeks a third NFL championship with the Kansas City Chiefs.
    • Despite the 12-hour flight and 17-hour time difference, the embassy can confidently Speak Now to say that if she departs Tokyo in the evening after her concert, she should comfortably arrive in Las Vegas before the Super Bowl begins.
  • Bias (85%)
    The author has a clear bias towards Taylor Swift and her relationship with Travis Kelce. The article is written in a way that portrays Swift as the main character of this story, even though she is not playing in the Super Bowl herself. The author also uses language such as 'real-life cinematic romance' to describe their relationship which may be seen as overly romanticized and biased.
    • The game’s outcome on 11 February could provide a climactic scene for the real-life cinematic romance starring two celebrities at the peaks of their careers.

        • Deception (50%)
          The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, it implies that Taylor Swift will be able to attend the Super Bowl and her concert in Tokyo without any issues when there is no evidence of this being possible given the travel time required for both events. Secondly, it suggests that American Airlines and United Airlines took notice of Swift's attendance at the Super Bowl when they changed their flight numbers, but there is no mention of this anywhere else and it seems unlikely that airlines would change their schedules based on one celebrity's plans. Finally, the article makes several assumptions about Swift's travel schedule without providing any concrete information or evidence to support these claims.
          • The article suggests that American Airlines and United Airlines took notice of Swift's attendance at the Super Bowl when they changed their flight numbers. However, there is no mention of this anywhere else and it seems unlikely that airlines would change their schedules based on one celebrity's plans. For example, the article states 'Both Kelce and Swift were born in 1989 (also the name of one of her albums). American Airlines Flight 1989 is scheduled to run twice from Kansas City, Missouri, to Las Vegas on Feb. 9 and Feb. 10.' However, there is no evidence that this flight was changed specifically for Swift or Kelce.
          • The article implies that Taylor Swift will be able to attend the Super Bowl and her concert in Tokyo without any issues when there is no evidence of this being possible given the travel time required for both events. For example, it states 'Swift flies private, so passing through customs and security will likely be much faster than commercial travel.' However, this does not take into account the fact that flying from California to Japan's capital city requires an estimated 12 hours of flight time over nine different time zones.
          • The article makes several assumptions about Taylor Swift's travel schedule without providing any concrete information or evidence to support these claims. For example, it states 'Swift will have traveled more than 19,400 miles (30,500 kilometers) in just under two weeks.' However, this does not take into account the fact that Swift's tour dates and travel plans may change or be rescheduled at any time.

          Maria Sherman has a clear bias towards Taylor Swift and her relationship with Travis Kelce. She repeatedly mentions his name in the article and portrays him as someone who is important enough for Swift to attend the Super Bowl if she can make it across the Pacific. The author also uses language that deifies Swift, such as calling her a 'record-breaking Eras Tour' artist and mentioning how many awards she has been nominated for. Additionally, Sherman mentions American Airlines and United Airlines taking notice of Swift's relationship with Kelce by changing their flight numbers to reflect it. This is an example of monetary bias, as the author implies that Swift's fame and influence have given her access to private aviation.

                    The article contains several examples of informal fallacies. The author uses an appeal to authority by stating that most state regulators prohibit props that subjective and then proceeds to provide examples of sportsbooks offering such props. This is a form of false equivalence as the regulations are not equivalent in all states, but rather vary depending on the laws governing each state. Additionally, there are several instances where the author uses inflammatory rhetoric by stating that Taylor Swift's frenzy surrounding her relationship with Travis Kelce has reached Las Vegas and is being used to entice Swifties. This statement is not supported by any evidence presented in the article and therefore cannot be considered a factual assertion.
