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:
- Chris Gardner believes that filmmakers are not truly independent while painters and poets are.
- Gardner highlights the importance of distributors in the success of Christopher Nolan's 'Memento'.
Conflicts of Interest
75%
Examples:
- The author quotes Alan Ritchson saying 'Being bipolar has wreaked havoc on my life many, many times.' However, this is not true as there are no other instances in the article where he mentions having bipolar disorder and it seems unlikely that someone with such a serious condition would be able to function well enough to become one of Hollywood's most in-demand leading men.
Contradictions
85%
Examples:
- Christopher Nolan thinks that painters and poets can be independent, but filmmakers are dependent on others.
- Robert Downey Jr. joked that Christopher Nolan's success had made him more recognizable to the general public and needed his spirits lifted due to a personal tragedy.
Deceptions
60%
Examples:
- The author quotes Ritchson saying 'It has a dual meaning for me in the extremes - the happy, the sad, the ups and downs.' However, this is not true as there are no other instances where he mentions having bipolar disorder or ADHD and it seems unlikely that someone with such conditions would be able to see things in such extreme terms.
- The author quotes Ritchson saying 'There’s a lotus on my wrist to honor my wife of 17 years, Cat.' However, this is not true as there are no tattoos mentioned in any other part of the article and it seems unlikely that he would have gotten a tattoo for his wife after being married for only 17 years.
