What the model flagged
Analyzed 2026-09-15 04:13 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.
Loaded Language 75%
The phrase 'on the sly' carries a connotation of sneakiness and deception, framing the university's alleged actions as underhanded rather than using neutral language — for example: 'use race on the sly'
“on the sly”
Appeal To Fear 80%
The sentence invokes the emotionally devastating imagery of 9/11 and al-Qaeda terrorism to create anxiety and alarm about the described event — for example: 'hosts an event on 9/11 featuring a lawyer for the al-Qaeda terrorist'
“hosts an event on 9/11 featuring a lawyer for the al-Qaeda terrorist who murdered”
Exaggeration/hyperbole 75%
The conclusion that 'wokeness is out of hand' is an extreme overstatement drawn from a single event, implying a sweeping societal crisis — for example: 'you know that wokeness is out of hand'
“you know that wokeness is out of hand”
Name Calling 70%
The term 'wokeness' is used as a derogatory label to discredit the institution and its choices rather than engage with the substance of the event — for example: 'wokeness is out of hand'
“wokeness is out of hand”
Analyzed automatically with Semblen'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 →
