“Supreme Court Sends Out an Ominous Sign

Why Troubling News:

There are a number of word choices in the article that seem quite incendiary that show bias from the author. Towards the beginning of the article for example, they use the phrase "attempted coup" to describe the Capitol riot of January 6th. Other word choices include the use of "deranged" and "nonsensical" to describe arguments made by Donald Trump's lawyers, and the use of the phrase "sloppy originalism" to describe how Justice Clearance Thomas interprets the Constitution. The use of this kind of phrasing is concerning, as it only deepens the polarization already felt in modern American politics and does not help bridge that gap. And even though this article is label as an opinion piece, the Daily Beast is supposed to be a news website that simply reports news, not rhetoric.

‘Unethical’: California sheriff rips Dems for plotting ‘immoral’ move to sink anti-crime proposal

Why Troubling News:

This news is troubling, as it shows a heavy bias against the left. The article continuously reiterates the idea that Democrats are lying to the people and only appeal to the voters for their benefit. Much of the language in this article is very biased and is conveyed as facts.

When Democrats Cry ‘Fake News’

Why Troubling News:

This article offers a facade that it is somewhat neutral by way of the author seemingly agreeing with the White House at time regarding "cheapfakes", aka altered videos or images of Biden that are aimed to misconstrue what occurred. Nevertheless, the utter bias of the author wholeheartedly comes through, where he slams Biden for his incompetencies or states that even though the video may be altered, Biden clearly is doing something wrong one way or another. Regardless of any factual information regarding Biden's health, the article promotes misinformation documents as legitimate.

Half a million immigrants could eventually get US citizenship under a sweeping new plan from Biden

Why Troubling News:

This article speaks too firmly that Biden's deal will go through and promise citizenship to half a million immigrants. They make it unclear how they calculated half a million immigrants, and if that would even be feasible under the new plan.

White House touts new Biden immigration policy on undocumented spouses of American citizens

Why Troubling News:

This news article exhibits a strong liberal bias and this is clearly shown through the use of the word 'touts' in the title which has negative connotations. The author seems to be condemning the White House for opposing Biden's efforts to protect the unprotected. Throughout the article there is also nothing but praise for Biden and his new policy.

Karine Jean-Pierre slammed for claiming Biden videos are deepfakes: ‘Don’t believe your lying eyes!’

Why Troubling News:

This article is biased right from the first headline by using this quote as a hook: 'Wow…Democrats are truly panicked,' . This is clearly biased against Democrats. It uses a lot of sarcasm and exaggeration which make it even more unreliable. It feels like this article wants to negatively target and slam politicians and figures of the opposing party rather than actually report on the story.

Trump leads Biden by 18 POINTS in key state… in sign Joe could lead Democrats to their worst loss in 100 years

Why Troubling News:

This article weaponizes facts to misconstrue the truth. Essentially, they use one poll source and exaggerate, claiming that a loss in Iowa would spell doom on the Biden campaign. True, Trump's conviction has emboldened Iowa voters to choose him over Biden. However, does the Iowa campaign spell disaster for Biden's entire campaign? Not entirely. The rhetoric used here is misleading for a purpose-to get more clicks and more attention, instead of reporting the truth unadulterated.

Where is my chair? Bizarre moment Jill covers her mouth as Joe suddenly bends down during the 80th anniversary D-Day speech.

Why Troubling News:

The article in the Daily Mail claims that President Joe Biden mistakenly tried to sit down in a chair that wasn't there - attributing the mistake to his old age. However, the video evidence for this claim is doctored to make this seem like it happened when it did not. The article aims to show that Biden is confused in his old age, hinting that he is unfit for the job of president. However, the basis for this claim is false.
