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

88%

Examples:

  • It must feel so gratifying that everybody comes back to advertising. Remember when streamers told you, ‘We’re going to do television a new way, so I’m afraid we won’t be needing your little commercials anymore,’ Meyers said to a roomful of advertisers.
  • . The original USS Callister is considered by many fans (and critics) to be the best Black Mirror episode.

Conflicts of Interest

58%

Examples:

  • I haven’t seen this much corporate camaraderie in this business since last summer since they all worked together to starve the writers.
  • You’re a fucking disgrace, you know that? You’re a fucking disgrace. You’re worse than Ebola on a dance floor.

Contradictions

86%

Examples:

  • Koy lost the room with two-thirds of his monologue still to go
  • Koy's opening monologue was weak, with comedians not used to reading a teleprompter
  • Robert Daly is dead but for the crew of the USS Callister their problems are just beginning.
  • The blame game continued and Koy turned on the audience for not laughing hard enough at back-to-back jokes he deemed ‗chilarious‗
  • The main problem was Koy's material which contained lodestones like 'Oppenheimer' and 'Barbie'
  • When an Oppenheimer joke didn’t go over as intended, Koy punctuated it with a seemingly self-deprecating remark which was not well received by the audience

Deceptions

38%

Examples:

  • It must feel so gratifying that everybody comes back to advertising. Remember when streamers told you, ‘We’re going to do television a new way, so I’m afraid we won’t be needing your little commercials anymore,’ Meyers said to a roomful of advertisers.
  • Seth Meyers had a few punchlines chambered for his employer. Like this one, on NBCU streaming service Peacock: ‘Peacock continues to prove that the easiest way to make a billion dollars is to spend eight [billion].’
  • The article states that a sequel to the classic USS Callister episode will be included in Season 7. However, there is no indication of this in any official announcement or logline provided.
