What's the claim exactly? Going forward, please state a precise claim like "The sun is blue," in the title of the claim. You can also add a bit more information below that and the link(s) where you found the information. Thanks!

I don't know exactly what you're trying to have answered but the article is written in a way that supports the use of lard. (Biased) Many pie crust recipes state that the usage of lard will make the crust flakier. This recipe calls for lard and notes the impact it has on a recipe. Whether that makes it better or worse is based on the opinion of the person eating the pie. Many of the links in the Fox story will just take you back to a Fox content page. This makes it seem like the story is citing information when it's not. Overall this story provides a lack of data to back its claim. So, your claim of it being biased and based on opinion would be correct.

Exaggerated/ Misleading
