Ground News is a news website that aims to present news purely objectively. Ground News gives news from multiple perspectives.
This news website even has a meter to show what percent of political parties covered the story.
For example, it will show “67% left coverage,” showing that the story is mainly covered by democratic news sources.
Ground News has trending stories in a bar on the top of the website such as “Israel-Hamas Conflict” and “St. Patrick’s Day.”
News should be presented like this, diving into what stories are covered by what party. This website also gives readers the opportunity to see how stories are written within different political parties.
It’s very important for a news website like this to exist, because opinion is taking over news media, and it’s hard to tell facts from opinion, there should be more websites like this.
WJPS 11th grader Panagiota Sfeliniotis said, “I think news has gotten more opinionated compared to news in the past. I think some stories regarding politics could have more objective viewpoints rather than bias.
WJPS 11th grader Luka Lucin said, “I believe that there is too much opinion in news nowadays because I always hear reporters arguing over their values, and that shouldn’t be in the news.”
