Show HN: Extension to rate news bias and suggests better stories for topic

Howdy folks! We are a team of 4 who love reading news.

Some of our best conversations are the result of reading a great story. But recently, those conversations have become less enjoyable as we instead debate if a story is biased or outright false. Speaking with hundreds of people, we found this mistrust and confusion around the news to be pervasive.

Today we’re excited to announce CivikOwl to help you get news you can trust. We are releasing a Chrome extension which instantly rates news stories and suggests better stories for the topic at hand.

Here's a blog post that goes into more detail : https://blog.civikowl.com/can-you-can-trust-the-news-you-are...

Hope to open source the extension code in the near future.

Would love to hear what you think!

I have been using the product for a month now and I have been pleasantly surprised by the news sources I have found that have good quality news. I have also seen that one news sources doesn't always have the same quality across all their content so this product is helpful in evaluating that too. Definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to get multiple perspectives on an issue and care about understanding news.

Timely and useful tool.

Such a needed tool!
