Bias

Contradictions

85%

Examples:

  • In the article about Bruhat Soma's win at the Scripps National Spelling Bee, it is mentioned that Bruhat won several other bees leading up to the Scripps National Spelling Bee. This contradicts the statement in the article that states 'Bruhat is the second straight champion from the Tampa Bay area and 29th Indian American champion in a row' which implies Bruhat was not part of previous wins.
  • In the article about Sydney's church stabbing, it is mentioned that unconfirmed speculation also swirled about the faith of the alleged attacker and his motive. This contradicts the statement in the article that says 'As the suspect is a child, his identity won't be publicly released under laws designed to protect youth offenders.' This implies that information about the attacker's faith or motive might be available but not released due to laws protecting youth offenders.

Deceptions

95%

Examples:

  • In both articles, there are no instances of deceptive practices.
