We aggregate content from 176+ vetted sources, applying rigorous methodology to surface the most significant stories. Our self-healing feed infrastructure ensures continuous reliability.

How It Works

Our system continuously monitors RSS feeds from wire services, major publications, and specialized outlets. Each story is evaluated using our seven-factor weighted scoring system:

Urgency (0-25)

Breaking indicators, recency, wire service authority, public safety terms

Impact (0-25)

Geographic scope, magnitude indicators, policy significance, elite involvement

Prominence (0-25)

Multi-source coverage, cross-spectrum diversity, source authority weighting

Newsworthiness (0-25)

Conflict/consequence, specificity, headline clarity (Galtung-Ruge factors)

Source Credibility

Every source is rated on two dimensions based on assessments from Media Bias/Fact Check, AllSides, and Ad Fontes Media:

  • Political Bias: A -3 to +3 scale where 0 represents centrist coverage
  • Reliability: A 1-5 scale measuring factual accuracy and journalistic standards

Stories covered by sources across the political spectrum receive elevated prominence through our cross-spectrum validation system.
