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.

Detected Manipulations & Suggested Changes

Sensationalism

Use of language that exaggerates the importance or impact of events to create a particularly strong impression.

The article uses phrases like 'fairytale Hollywood transformation', 'most compelling tales', and 'cultivated a cult following' which sensationalize the story of Wrexham's transformation.

Use more neutral language to describe the events, such as 'significant transformation' and 'gained a following'.

Appeal to emotion

Attempting to manipulate an emotional response in place of a valid or compelling argument.

The article appeals to emotion by focusing on the underdog story and the emotional journey of the club and its fans, as seen in statements like 'The town is the underdog in this story, more so than the football club.'

Include more factual information and analysis to balance the emotional narrative.

Unbalanced reporting

Presenting one side of a story more favorably than the other without a critical perspective.

The article heavily focuses on the positive aspects of Wrexham's transformation and the success of the 'Welcome to Wrexham' series, with little mention of any challenges or criticisms.

Provide a more balanced view by including potential criticisms or challenges faced by the club and the docuseries.

Omission of key information

Leaving out important details that could give a more complete picture of the situation.

The article does not provide information on how Messi's popularity is measured in the US or how it compares to the popularity of Wrexham and the docuseries.

Include data or metrics that show Messi's popularity in the US to provide a basis for comparison.
