Understanding Our Bias Comparison Summary Feature

The Bias Comparison summary feature helps readers quickly see how news outlets across the political spectrum (Left, Center, and Right) are covering the same story. Once you’ve clicked into a story, select the Bias Comparison tab just below the headline to view a summary of how each side is reporting on it.

We use AI to help us analyze content at the speed and volume that our readers expect.  There are tens of thousands of news stories published each day, and it would not be possible for our team to manually review and summarize each one. Our mission at Ground News is to show readers every angle of every story, and we are creating more features to make that possible.

We understand hesitations around AI, and as with any technology, we believe what matters most is the care and accountability with which it is used. At Ground, we’ve spent years developing and implementing guardrails, including human-in-the-loop oversight, to ensure we are using AI as thoughtfully and responsibly as possible.

Rest assured that our team is always here to personally answer any questions you may have and investigate any issue you may encounter on Ground News. In the meantime, we'll continue working to improve the technology and provide our readers with the best product possible.

If you notice an issue with a summary, you can report it directly to our support team. Our team is available 7 days a week to address and investigate any reported issues. Learn more about reporting an issue on Ground News here.

The Bias Comparison summary is available for stories that have enough distinct coverage across the political spectrum. If a story lacks enough unique articles from the Left, Center, or Right, the bias comparison feature may not be available.

For smaller stories with fewer sources, Ground News may only provide a general summary rather than a full bias comparison. As the story gains more media coverage, the Bias Comparison can become available.
