Ground news is pretty dope and the only people hating on it seem to be the people that have never used it, but thinks that it's automatically bad because of the whole left/right thing.

It's still a place to consume a large amount of news very quickly and at a glance you can see if one side isn't reporting on something or if they are reporting on it using very different language or focusing on different aspects on the topic.

Nothing will ever be perfect, but as the saying goes the enemy of perfect is good.

Does ground news cover articles from sources that aren't aligned with the false left-right dichotomy? Does it cover these sources without assigning them arbitrary conservative and liberal percentage numbers when the source may be aligned with a different ideology?

I'll just save you the trouble. Ground news probably isn't for you.

I'll save everyone the trouble. If you want unbiased news, Ground News is not for you.

It is literally impossible to get unbiased news. Everyone will have their personal beliefs bleed into what they saw/how they recount the event. More so for companies that send people out into the world to gather said news.

There is just more/less transparency on the bias.
