Oct 25 · Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado returns home after 10 months in exile, as Trump says he hopes she is safe
Fox News: Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado makes surprise return home after nearly a year abroad
Grade F (58/100). Fox reports Machado's post, Trump's remarks in Port Huron, González's confirmation, Rodríguez's time in office, the oil deals and Reuters reporting on the opposition talks
F: Mixes in the reporter's opinion and leaves out key context.
- Adds the reporter's own opinion or claims as fact (minus 24 points): 'Her return could complicate relations between the Venezuelan opposition, the interim government and Washington' (the outlet's own analysis)
- Leaves out something important (minus 18 points): Secretary of State Marco Rubio's statement crediting the U.S.-supported talks, which the L and C pieces report, is not included
Splits: Fox reports Machado's post, Trump's remarks in Port Huron, González's confirmation, Rodríguez's time in office, the oil deals and Reuters reporting on the opposition talks
