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.

This extension makes comparing news sources SO convenient. It's also always interesting to see who else is reporting on a story, especially when a story pops up on my Facebook feed.

I like how you can see what stories are covered by different news outlets, and it gives you a bird's eye view of the information that spreads around the internet. However, remember to actually do research into the facts that you care about, and that not everything neatly fits into left or right "agendas", as we so often like to simplify it as.

I love it, the app, about to DL the extension now. I hope that they can continue to grow and reach more countries and bring an open forum where you can get "your version of truth" but also see what the other side and/or observers are saying. In this time of inability to have debate while disagreeing, disagree without insult, and listen before speaking. The monopolization of our sources of information and the good business practices (enrichment for ratings, truth doesn't pay) of those in power has led to a divisive culture that needs help seeing that we are all being taken advantage of.

The extension is very good. However, I live in Australia and the entire platform has very U.S.-centric bias, so publications that are considered right-of-center here are considered left-wing. If there was a feature that accounted local perspectives this would be very useful and would make the platform an instant 5 stars for me.

Tim Pool hooked it up. This is just the kind of extension I've been looking for for a while now. Thanks, guys!
