Individual Analyses of Bias in Reuters Articles
In addition to conducting full-scale reviews of media outlets for overall bias — using methodologies such as Blind Bias Surveys and Editorial Reviews — AllSides sometimes evaluates the bias of an individual news article for bias.
The AllSides editorial team has detected common types of media bias in some individual Reuters articles, including word choice bias, bias by placement, slant, and spin. Read our analysis of each story on the AllSides Perspectives blog:
The United States called for its citizens to leave Haiti "as soon as possible" after violence escalated late last week, when 15,000 more people fled the fighting and armed men broke thousands of inmates from Haiti's largest prison.
The United States, which is home to over a million Haitians, said its embassy would be offering limited operations on Monday while Canada said it would temporarily close its embassy.
This follows the Haitian government's declaration of a state of emergency on Sunday evening after violent clashes in the capital damaged communications and led to a prison escape as the leader of the major G9 gang alliance sought to oust the prime minister.
Later on Monday, hundreds of people, reportedly escaped inmates, gathered in the capital chanting for Prime Minister Ariel Henry to step down, and their support for Johnson "Izo" Andre, a leader of a gang linked to the capital's other main gang alliance, G-Pep.
