SCOTUS poised to ‘destroy the structure of government’ in Trump v. Slaughter case
This article is very liberal and shows many instances of bias. One of the ways that the author frames the issue is that they predict the Supreme Court's outcome as certain, stating, "The Trump administration will win." This is not neutral reporting, but an assertion of the outcome before the court has ruled. The article also frames the court as partisan and aligned with Trump and his ideals, stating, "Republican-appointed justices' questions... seemed to confirm it." The author also employs emotionally charged language by using words like "dried husk" to quote someone with a more dramatic flair. Overall, the news article does not directly convey any false information, but its use of language contributes to framing bias, tone bias, and confirmation bias.
