Bias
91%
Examples:
- The author also seems to have a tendency to sensationalize stories, which can create a misleading narrative. For example, describing an incident as “gunman arrested after trying to shoot Pennsylvania pastor during church sermon in wild caught-on-camera moment”, which implies that the event was more dramatic and dangerous than it may have been.
- The author has a tendency to use strong language to describe the actions of those involved in conflicts or controversies, which may create a biased perspective. For example, describing protesters as “deceptive” and “savage” in one article, and using the term “mob” to describe a group of protestors in another. Additionally, there is a pattern of emphasizing the negative aspects of subjects, such as focusing on the disruptive nature of protests rather than their underlying causes.
- There is also evidence of a pro-Israel bias in some articles. For instance, describing anti-Israel protests as “disruptive” and “violent” without providing context or acknowledging the motivations behind the protests.
Conflicts of Interest
95%
Examples:
- Additionally, there are instances where the author seems to have a close relationship with sources, which may lead to questions about the objectivity of the reporting.
- The author also appears to have personal connections to some subjects they cover, which may raise questions about impartiality. For example, in an article about an Iranian college offering free tuition to US students expelled for participating in anti-Israel protests, the author notes that a professor at the college called the protesters “our people’ who would support Iran. This could be seen as an attempt to insert personal opinions into the reporting.
- There are no direct conflicts of interest identified in the articles provided. However, there is a pattern of covering topics related to political protests and social issues that may be seen as contentious or polarizing. This could potentially create a perception of bias among readers.
