Overview

Explore the web and lookup articles you find on Ground News

Get a second opinion of the news you’re reading. Whenever you come across a news article online, the Ground News Bias Checker shows you which news outlets are reporting on that story so you can compare coverage and make sure you’re seeing the full picture. The Ground News Bias Checker can: 1. Instantly show you how 50,000+ news outlets around the world are reporting on the same story. Easily compare related articles from different publishers to verify information. 2. Give you bias and factuality rating for news sources reporting on a story. See if the story is receiving balanced coverage, or if it's mostly being reported by news sources at the extremes of the political spectrum. 3. Integrate with Twitter, Facebook and Reddit to uncover media bias hidden in your newsfeed. 4. Save interesting articles to read later and automatically generate in-text citations to support your research. Developed by a former NASA engineer, Ground News helps readers think critically about the news they consume by providing context about the source of the information. For more in-depth analysis, try our website and mobile apps. For support or general inquiries, please contact feedback@ground.news

It doesn't work. I bought Ground News subscription. I installed this extension on my Chrome and it never works. I go to a BBC article for example and the auto information on the top doesn't pop up. If I try to manually click on the extension the extension says "This doesn't look like a recognised news article" (BBC, really?!). What's wrong with all of this? How do I make it work like in this video?

Small team. Outstanding communication. The opposite of today's norm.......you should check this app out. You will be amazed how accurately they detect bias. Thanks, Harleen.

I really like the idea of this extension, however, it just seems to not load on or recognize major outlets regularly. I can't see any info on any NYTimes articles, also issues with BBC, CNN. I assumed these large outlets would have been easiest to confirm this is working properly.

Hi Casey, we're sorry to hear about your experience. The extension will work on news sources that we have on our platform. Because the NYT is not on the Ground News platform it won't work within the extension. However, we'd like to learn more about the issues with BBC and CNN. Can you contact our team at feedback@ground.news with any relevant screenshots so we can investigate? We look forward to hearing from you.
