Description from store

Fake news, satire, and sites with questionable content are a serious problem on the internet. Even the most vigilant of users can mistakenly link to one of them without looking closer.

With a database of hundreds of websites, News Guardian will draw attention to these articles in your Facebook news feed, Google search, and more, to warn you that an article might not be what it seems on the surface, or requires further investigation.

News Guardian does NOT censor content, nor does it apply labels. It merely adds a customizable tint to the background color of linked content to remind you to check the source.
