See facts about the source of your news.
It's hard knowing which websites and news networks to trust. There are tools out there that try to tell us what is trustworthy and what is fake news, but how do we know we can trust the source of those tools? This extension gives you facts about popular news sites and lets you decide for yourself if it is trustworthy.
Here are a few examples of the types of facts this extension might show you when you visit a certain site:
- What governments or organizations are funding this network, channel, or website?
- Who is the chief editor?
- Is this site linked to any prominent politicians or organizations?
- What organizations has this site received donations from?
But how do we know if the "facts" are really facts?
Each fact will be backed up by at least one source itself and it will be up to you to decide if you trust the source of that fact.
The goal is to show you information about the source and let you decide for yourself.
