• The article has a distinct bias in its presentation, assigning a clear negative connotation to the actions and policies of the Obama and Biden administrations regarding Iran, while viewing the Trump administration’s actions favorably. This bias is evident in the language used, such as describing Obama’s engagement with Iran as "deluded" and the nuclear deal as "disastrous," compared to Trump's actions which are described as "wisely" tearing up the nuclear deal. The article's framing of the Biden administration’s policies as a continuation of Obama’s "failed policy" and the use of dramatic language to describe the potential consequences of these policies (e.g., "Iran felt a free hand to pursue its evil designs") further supports a high bias rating. The article’s bias score is 70 out of 100.
