15. Start with the headline.
That's pure propaganda. Follow that up with the reality that there is nothing about why these people must comply until half way through the story, adding a story about a "poor small business owner and his anger," followed by overgeneralizations (made without study or proof) about a supposedly nation wide epidemic of "shakedown" suits, and what you've got is pure propaganda.

The reporter didn't do the proper homework to make the statements he wrote about this supposed epidemic without attribution to any source. That leaves this piece as incredibly biased propaganda. One side is propped up by claims made to seem like they are facts, when they are simply hyperbole.
