It's apparently a news congregate site that shows bias in news articles and rates sources based on left or right leaning, factuality, etc. Seems like it could easily be abused to discredit certain sources, but also might be good for determining which outlets are very biased one way or the other. It's got stupid fucking subscription tiers but a free option as well so there's that. Not going to link it but it's the first result when searching "Ground News" so it's simple to find. Just wondering if anyone here has any experience, as I've seen a few YouTube channels sponsored by it, including non-political channels, and my curiosity is piqued.

I'm not hoping this replaces common sense or deductive reasoning, just thinking it can be a tool to use that might compliment those things. Thinking "Wow, this news article seems really biased" and then checking if others have had the same thought is more what I'm after, not having a place think for me. It's easy to let our own biases cloud our judgement, so having a way to see what conclusions others have come to is nice.
