Blickwinkel: Nachrichten

The same news story, three completely different accounts—depending on where you read it.

Blickwinkel (Perspective) makes this difference visible.

The app aggregates reports from over 80 media outlets in German-speaking countries and their neighboring countries into topic clusters. For each topic, you can see at a glance who is reporting on it, how the coverage is distributed across the political spectrum, and which side is currently silent.

WHAT THE APP SHOWS

• One topic, all perspectives

Each story aggregates reports from various media outlets and sorts them on a left-center-right axis. Three summaries show how the same event is being told from different perspectives.

• Blind spots

If a topic is reported almost exclusively from one political direction, Blickwinkel explicitly highlights this. These are precisely the gaps you never see when reading the news normally.

• The radar

A 3D world map with all the located stories. Each marker, displayed as a ring, shows how the coverage of this event is distributed across the spectrum.

• Transparent Methodology

The app fully explains how the ratings are determined. Every source

has a transparent rating. If you believe a rating is incorrect, you can
report it—every decision is publicly documented with its justification.

• No Full Texts, Always Link to Source

The app displays headlines, short summaries, and its own classification. Every click

leads to the original article on the website of the publication that wrote it.

NO ACCOUNT REQUIRED

No registration or email address is required for normal use.

No ad tracking. The app works from the first launch.

TRANSPARENCY

The political classifications are editorial assessments based on an openly documented methodology—not factual claims about the rated media.

They are continuously reviewed and corrected. We show them so you can question them, not so you believe them.
