Ground News is a platform that makes it easy to compare news sources, read between the lines of media bias and break free from algorithms. Over the past decade, online news and ad-driven algorithms have made it profitable for news outlets to embrace a position on the bias spectrum to target specific consumers. Bias in the media affects everything from what events receive coverage, to how a news outlet frames those events in their reporting. As media outlets narrow their perspective and range of coverage, it’s become impossible to consult a single news story for a well-rounded view on important issues. Ground News was created to offer clarity in an increasingly chaotic media landscape.

Our vision is positive coexistence where cooperative, civil debate is the norm, media is accountable, and critical thought is the baseline of our information consumption. We’re on a mission to well inform the world by empowering readers to think freely about the issues of our times. The Ground News rating system adds context and transparency to every news story. Readers from all walks of life can conveniently identify media bias, check source credibility, and view ownership data for news outlets around the world. The bias and factuality ratings are determined using three independent news monitoring organizations: All Sides, Ad Fontes Media, and Media Bias Fact Check. The ownership categories were researched and developed by Ground News.

Ground News is a Canadian news aggregation service founded by Harleen Kaur and Sukh Singh in 2020. It functions as a news aggregator with an emphasis on eliminating political blind spots of its readers. Ground News was co-founded on January 15, 2020 by siblings Sukh Singh and Harleen Kaur, the latter of whom was a former engineer at NASA.[1][2][3] Kaur and Singh are CEO and CTO respectively.[2] The... The stated goal of the service is to counteract media bias by displaying news events with sources from across the political spectrum.[5] When a story is selected on Ground News, the user will see... The service marks every news source with a bias rating using terms borrowed from the left–right political spectrum. According to Ground News, sources on the far-left and far-right "use loaded words, publish misleading reports or leave out information" and are associated with the "most extreme [left-leaning or right-leaning] party members." Ground News...

Both these ratings are averaged out from the ratings of three companies: AllSides, Media Bias/Fact Check, and Ad Fontes Media, who each have their own methods for determining factuality and bias.[8][9] As examples, Ground...
