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 U.S. Justice Department has charged a top lawyer for the Oath Keepers militia with conspiracy and obstruction in connection with the Jan. 6, 2021, deadly attack on the U.S. Capitol, according to a court document released on Thursday.
Kellye SoRelle, 43, is charged with obstruction of justice, and conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding. She is also facing counts of obstruction of an official proceeding and being at a restricted building and grounds.
SoRelle could not immediately be reached for comment.
The unsealed indictment alleges that SoRelle told others to withhold and "alter, destroy, mutilate, and conceal" items from the federal grand jury investigating the Jan. 6 riot by supporters of then President Donald Trump.
She was arrested Thursday morning and will have her initial court appearance in Austin, Texas, later on Thursday, a U.S. Justice Department spokesman said.
