Previous Troubling Reports

The bias in this article is already incredibly obvious and in-your-face without even reading it. The article goes on in bringing up and discussing apparent parallels between President Trump and Adolf Hitler. It goes on from their rhetoric, campaign promises and rise to popularity and power. The cause for concern from this Salon article should be obvious. The author is deliberately comparing and equating a former United States president to one of the most infamous, arguably most infamous, dictator in modern history. And for the record, I don't like President Trump. I have several reservations about his talking points and policies. But to compare him, or any politician regardless of party, to a genocidal fascist is ridiculous and troubling. Making this comparison does not help with the common polarization already present in American politics. By making this comparison, all it does is deepen demonization of the opposing candidate, party and its supporters. And by doing this, it can have the effect of causing people to dehumanize their fellow Americans and see them as a hostile "other," rather than promote cooperation, compromise, unity and a shared national identity.

This article is very surface level with it's sources and it's research. In truth, I question the need to truly report this on a public forum and why people truly needed to really know this news. The article makes a quick mention of a stabbing attack that happened to a citizen, which is mostly used as a way to signify the beginning of civil unrest in the country rather than doing statistical research into these crimes, such as how often these crimes have occurred more recently, how often certain marginalized groups are being attacked, or even the location in which these attacks are most frequently happening.

This is troubling because NewsMax is choosing to report on baseless claims that, even assuming they have no credibility, are skewed to downplay Kamala Harris. NewsMax does not cite a source in claiming that polls in key battleground states were tied, when in fact it is more likely that at this point in the race there exists a slight discrepancy among polls in favor of one candidate, based on all polls since Kamala announced her campaign. However, after citing a claim with no source, they bash a CBS News poll claiming Harris has a one-point edge over Trump. The only evidence of such was from the Trump campaign, which of course may not denote the truth. Not to mention, such a marginal difference in numbers is not likely to assist Kamala anywhere near as much as the article claims it could.

This article is troubling because it supports discussions that have painted Kamala Harris as someone who has not done enough to be qualified for the presidency. It is well known that Kamala Harris is extremely qualified given her positions as Attorney General of California, a United States Senator, and as our current Vice President. A number of presidents have held one or more of these posts before gaining office. Ultimately, headlines/articles like this one immediately skew readers' opinions and in this case, it is woefully inaccurate and somewhat defamatory towards Vice President Harris.

The headline immediately shows some bias towards Trump's decision to offer a debate hosted by Fox rather than the previously scheduled ABC debate he would have had with Joe Biden if he did not drop out. Furthermore, the article focused more on Harris' response rather than Trump's reasoning. There was only a small section covering his reasoning as it was a sentence saying he felt it would be a conflict considering there is a current lawsuit between him and ABC. Again, most of the article covered Harris' attacks on Trump and less on his, kind of skewing a reader's view on how this exchange is going.

This news is troubling because it is clearly biased towards the left. Though it reports correctly on statements that Trump makes, it also exaggerates the truth. The author makes Trump's statement much worse than they actually were, though they were very bad.

This article addresses false claims made by Trump and others. It includes misinformation about Kamala Harris, suggesting she is not Black but only Indian, which is incorrect. Kamala Harris identifies as both Black and Indian. The article also discusses misleading statements about Vance's personal life, wrongly claiming he is childless and a "cat lady." These claims are false and part of broader attempts to spread misinformation.
