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:

  • But Republicans weren’t Biden’s only problem. Democrats were at this hearing too, and they were angry.

Conflicts of Interest

75%

Examples:

  • The way Republican Chair Patrick McHenry addressed the anger issue nicely demonstrated the absurdity of House hearings these days.
  • Timothy Noah is a New Republic staff writer and author of The Great Divergence: America’s Growing Inequality Crisis and What We Can Do About It.

Contradictions

82%

Examples:

  • Republicans failed to effectively challenge Martin Gruenberg during a hearing.
  • The composition of Truth Social’s board consists mostly of former Trump administration officials who are likely to support him.
  • Trump’s net worth more than doubled after the start of trading for Truth Social stock.
  • Truth Social constitutes more than half of all shares in DJT, and Trump is barred from selling any of that stake for six months without permission from the company’s board.

Deceptions

75%

Examples:

  • The article states that if Trump’s poll numbers followed the same trend as Truth Social traffic, Nikki Haley would today be the Republicans’ presumptive nominee. However, there is no evidence to suggest this is true.
  • The author uses sensationalist language such as ‘unbearable temptation’ and ‘worthless investment’ to make it seem like Trump Social is a complete failure when in fact its stock price rose significantly on its first day of trading.
