Analysis – Suyash Keshari
The Trump article drew from another source – The Associated Press Exit Poll Survey – and was good at citing it.
“Clinton’s vote total Saturday didn’t quite reach the 294,898 votes that Barack Obama received in 2008 — the state’s most recent Democratic presidential primary — but she almost doubled the 140,990 votes she received in 2008. From Trump Article” there was some clear prior research that went into this to gather the data.
Made uses of quotes, adding at least one quote from every candidate’s speech or interview.
The article however seemed a little bias to ward Trump “Donald Trump easily captured the South Carolina Republican primary.”
“Post and Courier reporters Cynthia Roldan, Gavin Jackson and Maya Prabhu and The Associated Press contributed to this report.” Gave credit and acknowledgement in the end.
The article about Hillary Clinton too seemed bias as it focused on her entirely. The article did not give much weightage to other candidates. The article did not give quotes from different sources, the quotes were from just a few handful.
