StoryTracer

Finds the source of original reporting in a story

Install Compare

StoryTracer identifies the source information that web pages are based upon. When you navigate to a webpage with Story Tracer added to Chrome, StoryTracer will try to identify the source behind the webpage by looking at the links on the page. If a likely source is identified, a popup will appear indicating that the page you are on might be based on content from another page. StoryTracer uses the ground-truth node library.
