What the model flagged

Analyzed 2026-08-18 04:00 UTC. Articles are sometimes updated after publication — if a quote below isn't in the current version, the piece has changed since.

Findings may include language the outlet is quoting rather than asserting. We flag manipulation techniques wherever they appear, including inside quotations — so check each quote against the original before drawing a conclusion about the outlet.

Exaggeration/hyperbole 65%

The phrase 'five minutes ago' is a hyperbolic exaggeration to emphasize how recently some candidates moved to Florida — for example: 'it seems like five minutes ago'

“it seems like five minutes ago”

Loaded Language 80%

Emotionally charged words chosen to trigger a reaction rather than convey facts.

Name Calling 89%

Derogatory labels used to discredit a person or group rather than address their arguments.

Black-And-White Fallacy 60%

Presents complex issues as having only two options, ignoring nuance — for example: (?:real|true).*(?:know|understand).*.

“(?:real|true).*(?:know|understand).*”

Repetition 45%

Repeats key words or phrases to hammer ideas into the audience and make them seem more credible through familiarity — for example: "she" ×3.

“"she" ×3”

Analyzed automatically with Biasly's fine-tuned model. These are manipulation techniques, not political tilt — and finding one is not a claim that the article is false. The model has known false positives on strong-but-legitimate language, so treat each finding as a prompt to read closely, not a verdict. How articles are chosen →
