Tip: for meme-based Radar Checks, use the original meme, screenshot or headline as the feature image.

Claim

Bias Radar starts by isolating the precise claim being made rather than reacting only to tone or politics.

Context

We add the relevant background, definitions, timelines and facts that may change how the claim should be understood.

Missing Information

We identify what is omitted, simplified, exaggerated or framed in a one-sided way.

Emotional Trigger

We note which emotional buttons the post is pushing: fear, anger, disgust, tribal loyalty, betrayal or urgency.

Fair Conclusion

We end with the strongest conclusion the evidence can reasonably support—not the most dramatic conclusion the internet might reward.

Think we missed something?

Send us the strongest evidence against our conclusion. Good analysis should survive scrutiny.
