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.

Nevertheless, HonestyMeter is in the experimental stage and is continuously improving through user feedback. If the report seems inaccurate, we encourage you to submit feedback , helping us enhance the accuracy and reliability of HonestyMeter and contributing to media transparency.

Detected Manipulations & Suggested Changes

Sensationalism

Exaggerating or sensationalizing events to attract attention.

The article starts with 'Oh, the cringe.' and describes Harris' reaction as 'feigned surprise,' which adds a sensational tone.

Remove subjective phrases like 'Oh, the cringe.'

Avoid describing Harris' reaction as 'feigned surprise' without evidence.

Biased language

Using language that shows a bias towards or against a particular side.

Phrases like 'Harris feigned surprise' and 'swooned' imply a negative bias towards Harris.

Use neutral language to describe Harris' reaction, such as 'Harris responded' instead of 'Harris feigned surprise.'

Replace 'swooned' with a more neutral term like 'said.'

Unsubstantiated claims

Making claims without providing evidence.

The article states, 'The Obamas were not among Harris’ early backers this week, with one source telling The Post that was because the still-popular ex-president “knows she can’t win.”' without providing evidence or identifying the source.

Provide evidence or identify the source for the claim that 'the still-popular ex-president “knows she can’t win.”'

If evidence cannot be provided, remove the claim.

Quoting out of context

Using quotes in a way that distorts the original meaning.

The article quotes Michelle Obama saying, 'I am proud of you. This is going to be historic,' but does not provide the full context of her statement.

Provide the full context of Michelle Obama's statement to avoid misinterpretation.

Cherry-picking data

Selecting data that supports a particular viewpoint while ignoring data that contradicts it.

The article mentions Obama's guidance of Biden off-stage as an indication of doubts about Biden's ability to serve a second term, without mentioning any other possible interpretations or additional context.

Include other possible interpretations of Obama's actions to provide a balanced view.
