The Daily's Verdict

This author has a mixed reputation for journalistic standards. It is advisable to fact-check, scrutinize for bias, and check for conflicts of interest before relying on the author's reporting.

Bias

85%

Examples:

  • After years as a hot name in coaching searches and finishing as the runner-up for the Cardinals in 2023, the Staten Island native was passed over for interviews in 2024.
  • Many receivers would happily accept catching passes from Cousins or Josh Allen. The perennially disgruntled Diggs has forced his way out of those two situations over the last five years – and is getting rewarded by joining budding star C.J. Stroud.

Conflicts of Interest

100%

Examples:

  • After years as a hot name in coaching searches and finishing as the runner-up for the Cardinals in 2023, the Staten Island native was passed over for interviews in 2024.
  • The two executives reportedly helped steer owner Arthur Blank toward hiring favorite son head coach Raheem Morris over Belichick, given reasonable concerns of a power struggle.

Contradictions

85%

Examples:

  • Eberflus might’ve saved his job with a strong finish to the 2023 season.
  • Strider made only two starts in 2024 before complaining about discomfort in his elbow during a four-inning outing on April 5, and an MRI revealed damage to his throwing elbow.

Deceptions

75%

Examples:

  • The article mentions several other aces who are out for the season due to elbow injuries but does not provide any context or comparison between their performances and Strider's before getting injured. This creates a false sense of urgency and importance around Strider's injury when it may not be as significant as it is being made out to be.
  • The article quotes several players who have different opinions on whether MLB's implementation of a pitch clock is responsible for the increase in elbow injuries, but does not provide any evidence or analysis to support these claims. This creates an impression that there are conflicting views when in reality there may not be enough information available to make a definitive conclusion.
  • The article states that Strider led the majors in wins and strikeouts but fails to mention his ERA, which was 3.86. This is an example of deceptive reporting as it presents an incomplete picture of Strider's performance.
