Caution! Due to inherent human biases, it may seem that reports on articles aligning with our views are crafted by opponents. Conversely, reports about articles that contradict our beliefs might seem to be authored by allies. However, such perceptions are likely to be incorrect. These impressions can be caused by the fact that in both scenarios, articles are subjected to critical evaluation. This report is the product of an AI model that is significantly less biased than human analyses and has been explicitly instructed to strictly maintain 100% neutrality.

Detected Manipulations & Suggested Changes

Sensationalism

The article uses sensational language to make the event seem more exciting or dramatic than it actually is.

The Step Brothers made their triumphant return, and from the looks of things there didn't appear to be any lingering hard feelings between the two stars.

Use neutral language to describe the event without exaggeration.

Omission of key information

The article fails to provide important details or context that could affect the reader's understanding of the situation.

But it turns out Ferrell had been lobbying his then-producing partner and best friend Adam McKay to play the Lakers' larger-than-life owner, Jerry Buss, since he had started developing the show, which is an adaption of Jeff Pearlman's book Showtime: Magic, Kareem, Riley and the Los Angeles Lakers Dynasty.

Include more information about the reasons behind Ferrell's desire to play Jerry Buss and McKay's decision to cast Michael Shannon instead.

Biased language

The article uses language that favors one side or presents a subjective opinion as fact.

Not wanting to jeopardize his friendships with both men, Reilly decided to steer clear of anything that would hurt either of them 'Will is one of my best friends, Adam is one of my best friends, I was delighted to get the job and that’s all I really have to say,' he said of the rift between them.

Use neutral language to describe Reilly's decision without implying favoritism or personal relationships.
