This article is troubling for me due to its spread of misinformation. In the report, the author claims that the driver of the container ship that crashed into the Baltimore Bridge is Ukrainian, which is not true; the captain was confirmed to be Indian. Apart from spreading fake news, the author's wording also implies negative feelings towards the nationality. By saying, "The captain of the container ship is a Ukrainian," he targets a specific group in order to scapegoat the incident. More

The information given within this article about the cognitive ability of former U.S President, Donald J. Trump is all based on speculation. Though the article writer interviewed a former John Hopkins University professor, he claims "Biden is aging" while "Trump is dementing". He gives this theory without any real evidence besides observations made of Trump versus Biden when speaking to the public. Despite being a mental health professional, the educator seemed very bias when it comes to comparing the cognitive state of Donald Trump to Joe Biden. More

Article claims that the celebration of Trans Visibility Day on Easter Sunday is a deliberate attack on US Christians by the White House. Even if it does mention the fact that the date of Trans Visibility Day was picked in 2009, the author says that "it was not lost on Republicans that the White House moved to highlight the day as it fell on Easter Sunday", Making it seem as if it was an obvious plot/attack, when in reality the two dates just happened to overlap this year. It also gives the impression that the author equals being non-Christian to doing something inherently wrong, and that he considers that the gov. is favouring minorities over the larger population. Both tendencies open the door for discriminatory practices and inflammatory responses. More

I think this article is very skewed to the right. The evidence backing their claims is limited, and per usual the article has little to backup the title. It is clear that the article simply aims to slander any Democrat who goes against the Conservative agenda of banning TikTok, an app that happens to be a large output for political expression. More

From the title alone, you can clearly see that the article will be against Biden. The bias becomes even more clear when you begin to dissect the text. Firstly, Marlow accuses Biden of intentionally allowing immigrants into the country. There is no evidence provided by the author to back up this claim. Marlow writes that Biden is doing this so that he can gain more voters. Despite his claims, there is no solid evidence provided to support the assertion that there is widespread voting amongst illegals. The article on Breitbart provides no factual examples or situations where illegal immigrants actually voted. The article is plagued with the author's personal conspiracies. It is essentially a hit piece that is meant to make Biden look bad. Marlow wants readers to believe that their votes are being diluted and that America's elections are rigged. More

There were a number of disproven statements in this segment which are still being circulated. One that the Biden's have evidence against them that shows corruption. two national security is not under threat from border security( you could argue that the security of the border is under threat but not the nation as a whole). The border issue is being overstated in terms of a threat to the security of the nation. She also states climate change is not a threat to the Untied States, but climate change is already causing billions in damages, and that number will increase with time. More

This article overstates the stability of Afghanistan prior to the US withdrawal, making it somewhat misleading. This article also pins the withdrawal on president Biden, but this foreign policy objective had been in the works spanning multiple presidencies. This puts alot of emphasis on the president which is good for the news, but in reality most foreign policy objectives span past a single administration. The author also makes the claim that the US is showing weakness and then gives no real data to back this claim. This article is misleading because it is overly simplistic. More

Despite not being a fan of Trump's, this article is clearly biased against him and spreads false information. In the title, the author claims that Trump predicts a blood bath in case of losing, in relation to migrants. However, that passage was taken completely out of context. In fact, Trump meant a blood bath in the car manufacturing industry; not society, or much less for the migrants. This is a clear example of disinformation — the author uses his own political biases and omits information in order to push forward a political agenda. The agenda, in this case, being Donald Trump's authoritarian and aggressive tendencies. More

The article mentions that MSNBC does not air some of Trump's speeches or that they cut the transmission off. The author points out that these decisions relate to the network's refusal to be "knowingly broadcasting untrue things." The author seems upset by this, mentioning that "rebuttal couldn’t have waited a couple of minutes?" and that "if you’re going to cover Trump around the clock, let him have his say". In other words, the fact that Trump spreads false information is not important or alarming to the author when misinformation in news outlets is a very serious issue, specially around elections season.
