    It’s not perfect, but it’s whole raison d’être is to try to very clearly surface bias annotations of the source in question with any given articles, in addition to which other outlets are reporting the story, also in addition to the ideological spread those other outlets represent. A neat and fairly trivial side effect of this is that it’s super easy to see when stories are being largely pushed or ignored by one particular side, which can often indicate either self-censorship and/or propaganda stories, amongst other things. It’s actually a very interesting media literacy project, and I think it’s a great idea.

      What I like about it is the search-by-topic, where it’s pretty good at giving you a whole spread of stories from a ton of different sources about whatever the topic is.

      Way better than google’s news tab, which is pretty garbage.
