Transcript

You've probably noticed that when a big story breaks, the headlines, they can feel completely different. I was looking at coverage of the college protest crackdowns, and Ground News pulled together over 50 sources covering the same event. CNN described them as peaceful demonstrations, while the New York Post called them violent campus chaos. Same story, completely different framing. That's why I've genuinely been using ground news while researching topics for this show. Instead of bouncing between outlets trying to figure out what's actually happening, I can compare reporting from across the political spectrum all in one place. You can also see who owns different outlets and factuality ratings that show how objective or loaded a source tends to be. Go to groundnews.com slash LRC to get 40% off the unlimited Vantage subscription. That's groundnews.com slash LRC. Again, groundnews.com slash LRC. I really think you'll appreciate what Ground News is doing.
