Deceptions

Examples:
- The article mentions that Los Angeles released Williams on Wednesday and restructured Bosa and Mack's deals on Thursday to retain them but does not mention anything about Allen being traded until later in the day. This is an example of selective reporting as it only reports details that support the author’s position, while ignoring other important information.
- The author states that Chicago has added a six-time Pro Bowl wideout in Allen who was approached about taking a pay cut by the Chargers but declined which is false as there is no evidence of such an offer being made to him. This is an example of deceptive reporting as it implies that Allen had some control over his own contract and could have negotiated with the team, when in reality he was not given any option.
- The title mentions a blockbuster trade that many have been anticipating but does not mention this specific trade at all. This is an example of deceptive reporting as it implies that there was some major news coming out regarding the Bears and their trades, when in reality they only made one minor deal.
