Our Methodology

Bias Categorization

Sources are categorized based on widely recognized media bias ratings from AllSides, Ad Fontes Media, and Media Bias/Fact Check. We group sources into three categories:

Left-Leaning

CNN, MSNBC, Washington Post, NBC News, CBS News, ABC News, NPR, HuffPost, Politico, The Guardian, Vox, Slate, Mother Jones, The Intercept, Salon, and more

Center

Associated Press, Reuters, BBC News, Al Jazeera, USA Today, Axios, The Hill, Newsweek

Right-Leaning

Fox News, Breitbart, Washington Times, National Review, NY Post, Daily Wire, The Blaze, Daily Caller, The Federalist, Washington Examiner, Townhall, RedState, and more

Story Clustering

Articles are grouped into story clusters using keyword-overlap matching. We extract significant keywords from each headline, remove common stop words, and use a union-find algorithm to cluster articles that share enough keywords to likely be covering the same event.

Blind Spots

A "blind spot" occurs when a story is covered by sources from one or two political perspectives but ignored by the others. For example, a "Left Blind Spot" means left-leaning sources are not covering a story that right-leaning and/or center sources are reporting on.

Data Freshness

Articles are fetched directly from RSS feeds across 54+ news sources. The site rebuilds daily and also refreshes live via an on-demand API — articles typically appear within minutes of publication. Promotional and affiliate content is automatically filtered out.
