Images are an indispensable part of the news content we consume. Highlyemotional images from sources of misinformation can greatly influence ourjudgements. We present two studies on the effects of emotional facial images onusers' perception of bias in news content and the credibility of sources. Instudy 1, we investigate the impact of happy and angry facial images on users'decisions. In study 2, we focus on sources' systematic emotional treatment ofspecific politicians. Our results show that depending on the politicalorientation of the source, the cumulative effect of angry facial emotionsimpacts users' perceived content bias and source credibility. When sourcessystematically portray specific politicians as angry, users are more likely tofind those sources as less credible and their content as more biased. Theseresults highlight how implicit visual propositions manifested by emotions infacial expressions might have a substantial effect on our trust of news contentand sources.
