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

95%

Examples:

  • The author has a history of reporting on financial markets and economic news without any significant biases.

Conflicts of Interest

75%

Examples:

  • There is no evidence of direct conflicts of interest for the author.

Contradictions

86%

Examples:

  • In one article, the author reported that Microsoft violated European Union antitrust rules by bundling its Teams messaging and videoconferencing app with office software such as Office 365 and Microsoft 365. In another article, it was mentioned that Microsoft is suspected of abusing antitrust rules by bundling Teams with productivity apps, including Office 365 and Microsoft 365. This represents a contradiction in the reporting.
  • The author reported both an increase and decrease in Treasury yields within different articles without providing clear context or explanation for the discrepancy.

Deceptions

60%

Examples:

  • The author made incorrect statements about how yields and prices move in opposite directions and misrepresented the 10-year Treasury yield in one article.
  • The title of an article claimed that the yield on the 10-year Treasury had “swung back above 4%” when it had actually been below this level for some time. This is a lie by omission as no context was provided to explain what was happening before or after.
