My Bias Bar Colors Are Wrong

Edited

If the colors on the Ground News bias bar look different from what you expected, it is usually because your Ground News edition or account settings are set to a different regional color scheme.

Different countries use different political color associations and the Ground News bias bar is designed to represent the political party associations, depending on your Ground News edition. In countries such as the UK, Canada, and Australia, the left-leaning parties are associated with red, and the right-leaning parties are associated with blue, so the colors are set accordingly in our UK, International, and Canadian Editions.

Follow the steps below to confirm or change your bias bar color scheme.
