It was used as a general intensifier in France long before that, certainly in the 80s, as was 'hyper' - everything was (assume French accent) 'super-sympa'.

[Robert Poste's Child]

'The fact of the matter is' - invariably followed by a heavily biased opinion or outright lie.

'Experts say', 'new research shows', 'a recent study has found' - especially relating to health and diet. Usually signals a rehashed press release by a research company looking for funding or a self-appointed expert with a book to sell.

'Celebrity'. Equally bad whether about a person or a show.

'Top' before a person's occupation generally means they're not yet. Like when the Standard posters say 'famous actor dies' - always means it's someone you've never heard of.

Clickbait headlines eg 'watch what happens when', 'you won't believe...', 'amazing photo...' (usually lifted from social media on a quiet news day), etc.

'X denies Y'.

Any film/book reviews using the formula 'X meets Y' to compare it with existing work generally means it's pretty derivative.

I could go on.
