How can I read news that’s unbiased or balanced?

You can’t remove bias completely—but you can see it clearly. Particle's Political Spectrum Ratings make bias transparent by showing where every article falls on the political spectrum and whether it’s factual news, analysis, or opinion. They help readers find balanced news sources and understand media bias in real time.

How are Political Spectrum Ratings generated?

A combination of AI-driven media analysis and human editorial review.

Why are these ratings important for news readers?

Because transparency creates trust. In a world flooded with information, readers deserve to know what they’re reading: fact-based reporting or persuasive commentary. Political Spectrum Ratings help you spot potential bias, compare perspectives, and form your own conclusions.

How do the visuals work?

Every rated story includes clear visual indicators showing both the content type and the political lean (Left, Center, Right). The analysis calls out when stories' coverage is polarized, similar, or not political. These intuitive markers let you grasp a story’s orientation at a glance—perfect for mobile readers and news app users seeking clarity fast.

How can I use Political Spectrum Ratings to read smarter?

Use them as a bias compass—a quick guide that shows you where your news stands and how to balance your reading diet. Following stories from multiple sides helps combat echo chambers and supports media literacy and democratic awareness.
