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
Biased language
The use of derogatory terms and emotionally charged words to describe individuals or entities.
Terms like 'Barack “If You Like Your Health Plan” Obama lied shamelessly', 'Sen. Bernie Slanders — er, Sanders', and 'disgusting hack' are examples of biased language that undermine objectivity.
Suggested Changes
Use neutral language to describe individuals and avoid derogatory terms.
Refer to individuals by their proper names without added commentary.
Misleading statements
Statements that are presented in a way that can mislead the reader or distort the truth.
The claim that Biden can only boast about 'record-breaking job growth' by counting recovered jobs is misleading without proper context and analysis of economic data.
Provide a balanced analysis of job growth data with appropriate context.
Compare job growth data from multiple sources and time periods for a fair assessment.
Logical fallacies
Errors in reasoning that undermine the logic of an argument.
The article uses false equivalence by comparing Israel's military actions to the US bombing in Afghanistan without a fair comparison of the circumstances.
Avoid comparing different situations without acknowledging the unique context of each.
Present each situation objectively and refrain from drawing parallels that imply equivalence without justification.
Unbalanced reporting
Presenting one side of an argument or story without giving equal coverage to the opposing side.
The article heavily criticizes Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and Bernie Sanders without presenting their perspectives or responses to the accusations.
Include statements or perspectives from the individuals or groups being criticized.
Seek out and present opposing viewpoints to provide a balanced report.
Ad hominem attacks
Attacking an opponent's character rather than answering the argument they are making.
The article attacks the character of individuals like Bernie Sanders ('Sen. Bernie Slanders — er, Sanders') instead of addressing their arguments.
Focus on the substance of the arguments rather than attacking the character of the individuals involved.
Provide evidence-based rebuttals to the claims made by the individuals.

- This is an EXPERIMENTAL DEMO version that is not intended to be used for any other purpose than to showcase the technology's potential. We are in the process of developing more sophisticated algorithms to significantly enhance the reliability and consistency of evaluations. Nevertheless, even in its current state, HonestyMeter frequently offers valuable insights that are challenging for humans to detect.
