Finding Multiple Sources of Information

[Randy W]

For anyone looking for multiple sources of information, Ground News looks like an incredible resource at only $29.99 PER YEAR. It is VERY comprehensive and allows you to easily find other sources for something you may be reading.

From their FAQ - "Where does the news on Ground come from?

The news on Ground comes from 2 sources: directly from over 50,000 major news publications (newspapers, news TV channels, news magazines) from around the world, and trending social media (including select blogs). If you don’t like the mainstream perspective, you can always find the independent one by swiping through sources or by following your favourite publications.

If you cannot find your favourite news publication on Ground, you can submit it for review within the app by going to Settings > Support > Suggest News Source."

"Ground reveals the reader’s own reading behaviors in the feature “My News Bias”. With this feature, news sources are selected for each story to show a full and balanced set of coverage of the event."

It is MUCH more extensive than I could possibly show in one picture.

How does the rating system on Ground News work?

The Ground team takes no part in evaluating a Bias or Factuality Rating on news publications or stories – we leave that to the experts. Bias and factuality ratings are averaged from the published ratings from three third-party independent news publication monitoring organizations, when available: All Sides, Ad Fontes Media, and Media Bias Fact Check. These organizations each have their methodology listed on their respective websites if you’d like to read more about them.

To learn all about our methodology, read more here.

Ratings are not static and can evolve over time based on the trajectory of reporting. If you disagree with a rating, you can always select “Edit Bias Rating” on a news source to change the rating on your personal account.

Does Ground have a political agenda?

Ground has no political agenda and only presents the news as it's being reported. We do not censor any news, nor do we publish or editorialize any of our own. News is sourced from publications across the political spectrum and flagged with a bias and factuality ratings in order to help readers understand where the news is coming from and allow them to come to their own conclusions.

The Ground team is happy to receive users from all walks of life, but the platform operates independently of readers’ political preferences.

They have a "Blind Spotter" feature for topics which are covered by only one "side".
