Sparkmeter - Rate The Political Bias In News Stories
By Rob | March 28, 2007
Louisville entrepreneur Ben Thomas recently launched SparkMeter - a social news website that lets the community vote on the relative bias in news articles. According to Ben:
It provides a platform for you to react to political punditry by rating news and comments as leaning-left, leaning-right, and objective.
The media has feigned objectivity for decades. Will Sparkmeter show otherwise? Watch and see.
