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

68%

Examples:

  • Israeli fighters and artillery have been pounding all parts of the city, including the city centre.
  • The truth is that the Israeli occupation forces have been operating in all of the city, while a ground invasion has started in the eastern side of it.

Conflicts of Interest

100%

Examples:

  • Israel is breaching a White House directive by continuing to block U.S. aid into Gaza
  • Israel's siege on Gaza and its blocking of U.S. aid violate Section 620I of the U.S. Foreign Assistance Act.
  • The State Department's leaked confirmation that Israel has restricted the transport and delivery of U.S. humanitarian assistance leaves no doubt: U.S. law requires the suspension of military aid to Israel.

Contradictions

86%

Examples:

  • A growing number of states across the country are reporting that they have received bomb threats to their Capitols on Wednesday morning.
  • Kentucky police asked everyone to evacuate the state Capitol after receiving an email containing a bomb threat.
  • Michigan, Mississippi and Montana also reported receiving bomb threats on Wednesday morning.
  • The Georgia Department of Public Safety determined a bomb threat was not credible after conducting a sweep of the building.
  • The Minnesota Supreme Court had to evacuate in the middle of oral arguments due to a threat.

Deceptions

45%

Examples:

  • According to Associated Press journalists on the ground, more than two dozen people were wounded after Israeli forces struck a part of central Rafah.
  • But media reports dispute the Biden administration's characterization of Israeli actions in Rafah as limited.
