INSIDE THE GUIDE

Read the coverage. Then read the framing.

Bias is not always a fabricated fact. It can appear in what gets emphasized, what gets omitted, which sources are treated as authoritative, and which words are chosen to describe the same kind of event.

01

Language & framing

Learn to notice loaded wording, passive voice, labels, and headlines that quietly assign blame or credibility.

02

Sources & claims

Ask who is making the claim, whether it is independently verified, and whether competing evidence is acknowledged.

03

Context & omission

Identify the timeline, history, or relevant facts a reader would need to understand the event accurately.

04

Images & captions

Evaluate whether visuals, captions, maps, and placement accurately represent the underlying facts.

05

Standards & consistency

Compare how similar conduct, evidence, and uncertainty are described when different actors are involved.

06

What to do next

Use a fact-first process to document concerns, contact editors, and share corrections without amplifying misinformation.
