News reports aim to describe what happened, while opinion pieces argue for a point of view. Both can be valuable, but they should not be mixed up. Reputable outlets label opinion and analysis clearly. When a headline sounds more like a verdict than a description, check whether the article is an opinion column before treating its claims as settled facts.
