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:

  • The article praises Tran Anh Hung's focus on sensibility and artistic aspirations while criticizing its portrayal as a movie about food.
  • The article uses language that dehumanizes its subject, referring to them as 'dull-witted'.
  • The very idea of repackaging Mean Girls as a movie-musical is insulting and normalizes the most divisive aspects of Millennial gender politics.

Conflicts of Interest

50%

Examples:

  • Regina (Renée Rapp) is so attracted to The Plastics that she betrays her first friends.
  • The article falsely claims that Hung's work is only focused on sensory response when it actually delves into deeper emotions and intelligence.

Contradictions

85%

Examples:

  • It's also one of the most deeply felt romances to hit the screen in ages.
  • Traces his love of cinema to his father who would come home in South Vietnam with detailed descriptions of movies he had seen at the cinema.

Deceptions

80%

Examples:

  • Bebe Wood, Renee Rapp, and Avantika in Mean Girls(JoJo Whilden/Paramount Pictures)
  • The article states that Mean Girls was never good, although fans endorsed its inane satire about guileful and insecure young girls going through life with bad manners. This is a lie by omission as the author does not provide any evidence to support this claim.
