The Daily's Verdict

This author has a poor reputation for journalistic standards and is not considered a reliable news source.

Bias

85%

Examples:

  • The article quotes Democrats who are critical of Israel without providing any context or counter-argument, which creates a one-sided narrative.
  • The article uses the phrase 'civilian death toll' to refer to Palestinians killed in Gaza rather than acknowledging their humanity. This is an example of dehumanizing language used by the author.

Conflicts of Interest

0%

Examples:

No current examples available.

Contradictions

100%

Examples:

  • The article does not provide any evidence or sources for the claim that Congress has leverage over weapon sales to Israel.
  • The title implies that Congress can use leverage on weapons sales to prod Biden on Israel when in fact it's not clear if this is even possible or effective.

Deceptions

50%

Examples:

  • The article does not disclose the author's affiliation with The New York Times or his previous work for CNN and Georgia Public Broadcasting.
  • The article does not mention any potential conflicts of interest that may arise from reporting on weapons sales to Israel.
