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

Examples:

  • The article implies that Jeffrey Yass's firm has a significant influence over Truth Social and Trump Media without providing any evidence or context.

Contradictions

80%

Examples:

  • The article also contradicts The Wall Street Journal on whether Yass commented on his involvement with Truth Social or not.
  • The article contradicts itself and other sources on the timeline and extent of Susquehanna International Group's investment in DWAC.

Deceptions

60%

Examples:

  • The article omits important details that could affect the reader's understanding and perception of Yass's involvement with Truth Social.
