    1. While gas prices are declining earlier than some anticipated, several energy analysts have warned that gas prices could soar again in the fall

      This a form of media bias because the term sore is exaggerated and meant to cause the reader to be fearful of future events related to gas prices. In the Allsildes link, this is an example of a spin in media biases.

    2. AAA spokesperson Andrew Gross on Monday suggested that the swift price drop could spark a surge in demand, which would subsequently raise rates once again

      This is an example of media bias because it's opinion presented as fact. According to Allslides, "How to spot 16 types of media bias", states that the world could *indicate a subjective statement. "A subjective statement is one that is based on personal opinions, assumptions, beliefs, tastes, preferences, or interpretations. It reflects how the writer views reality, what they presuppose to be the truth".
