## Sift Description
How Sift helps reduce news anxiety:

Build a knowledge base. Dig into historical context to understand the backstory of today’s contentious issues. 

Reframe the narrative. Peer beyond the headlines to explore nuanced perspectives and considerations that go beyond talking points. 

Challenge yourself. Test your knowledge by engaging more of your brain with a tactile learning experience. 

Take time to think and feel. Pause and reflect on what you know, what you don’t, and how you feel.

## Sift Reviews in United States

### *---- "Whitewashed"
In their fake news section they focused on Russian news and nothing else. 

The problem is homegrown and avoiding the real culprits make it obvious that you’re not going to get the truth here, just the safest middle ground.
-- SupaTroppah, 2020-08-20

### ***** "Healthcare internationally"
My first SIFT article! 
This style really appeals to me! No BS or ads flooding in between every sentence or paragraph.
Give it a try, not for everyone, but I really like it! Reminds me of early NPR in the 70’s.
Thank you SIFT!!
-- btraps4sale, 2020-01-09

### ***-- "Interesting x2"
I like the concept but hiding content/information behind a paywall can be problematic when the idea behind this is to curb emotional distress in today’s news climate. The design is also not very friendly in that it seems less like a news app and more like a luminosity type app. Solid idea.
-- RubenzeoG, 2019-11-20

### ***** "I love this app"
Sift is a great way to learn about the central social and political issues of our time. It’s extremely accessible to read, and we get the whole picture: history, sources (proof), fun ways to interact and learn. Also, these issues are always evolving and growing as we grow as a culture, so I really appreciate when they let us know what parts of the issue don’t have a clear answer yet. Thank you, I’m a proud subscriber now, and look forward to reading new topics as they are released.
-- ZachSox, 2019-06-04

### *---- "Sift for a news outlet?  I want the whole story"
This sifts out the facts that support their argument and removes the counters leaving a very biased story. Sad.  The layout is nice it’s just sad they aren’t looking for the truth.
-- Portland gaming, 2019-05-04

### *---- "who in god’s name would pay for this trash?"
another group of biased, radical left wannabe reporters trying to capture your attention by sprinkling sugar on political hot topics, except this sugar is in the form of buzzwords coupled with a writing style that is downright condescending. 

id summarize this ‘app’ as a regurgitation of the same rhetoric that the left spews 24/7.

if these people had any real value to offer, it would be published for free in an environment that shows WHO wrote the content. this is just an attempt by a few rejects who think they are smarter than the rest of us.
-- calvinbrodice, 2019-04-27

### ***** "Wow"
This app is fantastic. Approach it with an open mind and you will benefit from the topic you are reading. Some of these reviews obviously came from people who did not take the goal of the app seriously at all. That, or they just don’t want to believe in facts. Looking forward to more topics. Please add a tap to each side of the screen to go back or forwards instead of a swipe. Maybe an optional toggle.

### **--- "Interesting content, but still biased"
I appreciate this app as it has interesting historical info, stats, and a lot of good content. However, my low rating is due to the obvious bias (though I agree with much of it) throughout the content. I downloaded this to get information as close to objective as possible, but the creators’ ideological perspectives show in the way content is worded and presented. Great concept, but difficult to deliver a product marketed as apolitical.
-- jjicb, 2019-01-19

### ****- "Don’t believe the hate"
I don’t get it. Sift provides actual, legitimate, non-biased sources and yet people say it’s biased? What, because it doesn’t fit your narrative? That’s not how this works.
The interface and presentation is pretty dang awesome, which is why I’ve been waiting and WAITING for more topics. I’ve been stuck on immigrations for many months now. I want more topics! :)
-- Laceyyy__, 2019-01-14

### **--- "Biased"
I was excited about the concept. After downloading the app and engaging on the content, I was disappointed to discover that the “research” lacks context, meaning of subjects, and is severely biased. I’ll check. Back later to see if content is improved.
-- Timbermark, 2018-11-08
