Republican-controlled Supreme Court considers granting a Project 2025 wish
The article is heavily biased and carries loaded and framing-heavy language. Some examples of this language include "republican-controlled Supreme Court," "the court's latest opportunity to empower the republican president," and more. The author has implied motives such as aligning the Supreme Court with the Trump administration and the right-wing agenda of The Heritage Foundation's Project 2025. Although the article doesn't share any false news, its framing bias and tone bias skew what the reader may think of this issue.
Supreme Court seems ready to let Trump fire independent commissioners
This article is troubling news because of many reasons, including the charged headline. The title, "Supreme Court seems ready to let Trump fire independent commissioners" implies a definitive outcome that the Court has not actually reached. The phrasing of the title suggests certainty and immediacy, both of which can sensationalize the situation before readers can actually understand the legalities of what is happening. Additionally, the article was very selective with the comments it chose to feature, only highlighting statements that reinforce the author's narrative, further creating the impression of a predetermined ruling rather than presenting a balanced overview of the situation.
‘Only so long’ before Trump’s tariff costs hit consumers, businesses warn
The Politicl article presents itself as an explanatory report on Trump's tariffs, but its structural framing reveals a clear directional bias. Its headline eastablish an anxiety-driven narrative before evidence is introduced, priming readers to expect economic harm. The article then sequences information to reinforce this predetermined conclusion; it opens with economists' warning, moves into corporate claims that price increases inevitable, and concludes with predicted political damage to Republicans. Notably absent are countervailing perspectives, such as sectors benefiting from tariffs, reshoring effects, or alternative macroeconomic interpretations. This selective structuring does not fabricate facts, but it constructs a false sense of inveitability by presneting only the portion of economic reality that supports a derteriorating outlook. Language choices further amplify the article's negative framing through emotionally suggestive terminology rather than neutral economic vocabulary. Terms, such as "hangover" and "only so long" serve as affective cues that imply instability, crisis, or impending collapse. These metaphors shape a reader's emotional response independently of empircal data to guide interpretation toward the harshest reading of tariff impacts. While the article avoid massively overt partisan language, its tonal shaping functions as a linguistic form of bias, which packages economoc prediction in a rhetoric of anxiety. Even when presenting factual corporate statements, the article frame them through metaphors of unsustainability, reinforcing the sense of impending economic deterioration. Meanwhile, this article has the tendency strongly against trariff and the administration through selective sourcing and omission. Nearly every quoted vioce represents groups negatively affected by tariffs.The absence of perspectives from other industrial fields, trade straregists, which creates a one-directional narrative that harm is universal and policy failure is assumed.
Trump says he wasn’t threatening Democrats he accused of ‘seditious behavior, punishable by death’
This is troubling news because the article uses charged language to amplify the emotional impact of Trump's statements and frame them in a way that may exaggerate his intent. By highlighting President Trump's most dramatic phrasing from some of his most recent statements and then primarily focusing on the strongest negative reactions to it, the article sensationalizes the situation rather than presenting it in a balanced, straightforward way.
Trump’s battle with independent agencies is back at the Supreme Court
Trump wanted to fire a member of the FTC, but that decision was contested by the fact that there is a law enacted by Congress to insulate the agency from political pressures. So the case went to the Supreme Court as the Trump administration is arguing that the president has the authority to make those type of decisions. We will have to wait and see what the court decides to fact check the administrations claims.
ICE arrests multiple Afghan nationals with criminal convictions released into US by Biden-era programs: DHS
This article has a clear conservative bias. It not only negatively portrays a Biden-era program, but it also glorifies the arrests of illegal immigrants made by ICE. It purposefully highlights criminals who have been arrested, trying to show the good of the recent uptick in ICE arrests. This article does not maintain objectivity, and there is a clear editorial conservative bias, as is typical of Fox News.
Cuellar claims he was indicted by Biden’s DOJ because of his opposition to open border policies
The article implies that the reason Cuellar was indicted by the DOJ was because he spoke out against what is characterized as the Biden administration's "open border policies." In other words, it implies the indictment was politically weaponized in retaliation for opposition.
Trump “Dealing With The Poisoning of America”
The article discusses conspiracy theories about what the "poisoning of America" possibly refers to. The majority of the links in the article are hyperlinked back to Infowars. Additionally, the article lends credence to conspiracy theories. This can be harmful because misinformation can quickly be spread. The article discusses these theories as if they are credible. Talking, in fact, can be very harmful and promote fake news.
Melania Trump Sucks Up to Russian President Vladimir Putin After He Humiliats Her Husband Donald Trump
The title of the article misrepresents what the article is about. Melania Trump praises Putin for releasing Ukrainian children back to their families. Nowhere in the article does it mention how Trump is humiliated by Putin. It's just the author's opinion. Melania Trump praising Child reunification does not directly link her to sucking up to Putin after he humiliated Trump.
False Claim That Afghan National Guard Shooter Entered the U.S. Without Vetting
This week, several U.S. news outlets, including Fox News Digital, circulated the misleading claim that the Afghan national accused of ambushing U.S. National Guard members had entered the United States “unvetted.” However, according to verified reporting and documentation reviewed by FactCheck.org, the suspect had undergone multiple layers of vetting, including screenings tied to his prior work with U.S. intelligence forces in Afghanistan and an additional immigration vetting process before entering the country. The repeated suggestion that he arrived without screening misrepresents the actual procedures and falsely implies a breakdown in immigration security protocols.
White House Media-Bias Website Publishes Incorrect Claim About Fox News Reporter
This week, the White House launched a new “Media Bias” webpage that was found to contain inaccuracies when it incorrectly credited a Fox News reporter with a statement during a press conference. Fox News challenged this claim, prompting the White House to delete the entry and temporarily take the page offline to fix the mistake. Although the site aims to highlight biased or false journalism, it accidentally became an example of misinformation by misidentifying a reporter and publicly accusing their actions of being “biased” without verifying the facts.
Pro-India Forces Fight America First In Foreign Visa Shutdown
https://www.infowars.com/posts/pro-india-forces-fight-america-first-in-foreign-visa-showdown
This is troubling news for me because of the amount of opinion within the article. It is labeled as opinion, and InfoWars is notorious for publishing articles with a conservative slant, but this article is more concerning than others because of the author citing as much of his own works as he does. He is a prolific writer for InfoWars, and he cites several of his own works near the end. This is all with the end goal of supporting the current battle with the H-1B visas, and claiming that the stance that fights for keeping the current restrictions on them is the correct one.
