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 quotes a fan saying that tickets are not being scanned at entry at the WM Phoenix Open. However, this is false as it implies that there was no other reason for these issues which contradicts what the Thunderbirds stated later in their statement about wanting to remedy concerns.
  • The article states that alcohol sales in some locations were stopped by Scottsdale Police due to 'severe congestion'. However, this is also false as it implies that there was no other reason for stopping the sale of alcohol which contradicts what the police stated later in their statement about wanting people to move around or exit.

Deceptions
