Description

NewsGuard's reliability ratings for news and information sources help users make decisions about which news sources to trust—and avoid misinformation and disinformation.

Our ratings, scores, and Nutrition Labels for websites are displayed next to links on search engines and social media platforms and cover all the news websites accounting for 95% of online engagement.

Ratings are conducted by a team of experienced journalists using nine basic, apolitical journalistic criteria. Each site receives a trust score of 0-100, an overall rating level ranging from “High Credibility” to “Proceed with Caution,” and a thorough Nutrition Label report detailing the site’s ownership and financing, content, credibility practices, transparency practices, and history.

The Most Accurate Media Watchdog

antidoteforsoma on

United States

I’m a freelance journalist and run every source I use through Newsguard. I’m a moderate and have no stake in which sources get higher or lower ratings. This one is by far the most fair and accurate. If you read the news, use this please!

I can’t log in!

It is impossible for me to log in to NewsGuard and verify news sites, even though I signed up for an account and started a subscription. Whenever I enter my credentials, it keeps demanding that I subscribe to use the app, even though I ALREADY have a subscription. When I try to renew my purchase, it glitches. If I have to pay a subscription, I should be paying for something that works. At least Media Bias Fact Check is available free of charge.

App won’t open.

I signed up on the subscription page and when I sign in I get sent right back to the subscription page. Is this thing broken?

What bull!

Well almost fooled me! I wouldn’t pay a penny for this ridiculous app. News guard, who is guarding you? Apparently no one. After purchasing this app and using it for a bit, I noticed that they not only lean left, they are in bed with the left!! I watch both CNN and FOX news, as I agree that fox is wrong here and there, CNN has been not only wrong many times, but has suppressed important news purposely and keeps doing so to protect its elite backers. I give news guard a score of 20/100 shame on you!! Your a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

Gives results I anticipated

The app does a great job of detailing each news site, states current examples of stories from the site and if they are accurate or not with linked sources to back it all up. Those complaining that this is an anti conservative app are just mad that the places they get their news are filled with false or altered stories and stay away from the truth. The app is great at debunking sites on both the left and the right, it’s just a fact that the sites to right are more often spreading false information. The app is fair, transparent and factual and they back it all up with sources and repeated requests to sites for clarification on their stories.

The irony

An app that rates the legitimacy of news sources, but openly admits that news sources can pay for rating boosts? Strike one. An app that refuses to acknowledge fake news put out by its top paying sources, but assigns poor ratings on new sources for reporting things that later turned out to be indisputably true? Strike two. Giving a news source a poor rating claiming they used untrustworthy sources for they data, but the source they used was newsgusrd certified? Strike three. You played yourself. Good job.

Don’t trust these clowns-don’t trust ANYONE

This so called “FACT CHECKER” organization has now become (really was since its inception)a ALT-LEFT-Democratic propaganda machine. Don’t expect anything but opposite of the truth.

Accurate app

United States

If you’re complaining that your right wing sources are listed as unreliable, maybe it’s actually your sources that are the problem, not the app.

Extremely Biased

Fred F... on

United States

If you are just looking for an echo chamber and can't handle any opposing points of view, then this app is definitely for you. If you like to hear more than one side of a story, then stay far away from newsguard. As the app name suggests, they will guard you from actual news

The FAKE fact check site

United States

Run by lefty looneys….. color coded cause the dumb can’t read !!!! Run by woke people from a university ! Vet your fact checkers properly because if you research this one just like Politifact …… you’ll find a history of being wrong and the facts are mostly opinions !!!! And opinions are not facts !!
