TheFrontPage.World

Headlines from 100+ countries, ranked by consensus - not algorithms. No ads, no tracking, no filter bubbles. Free and non-commercial.

The Front Page is a free, non-commercial news aggregator that displays top headlines from credible news sources across 100+ countries.

HOW IT WORKS

Headlines are collected every 2 hours from 900+ RSS feeds — newspapers, wire services, and public broadcasters from around the world. Each headline is scored and ranked using a transparent, open formula:

• Consensus (35%): Stories covered by multiple sources score higher
• Recency (30%): Newer stories rank above older ones
• Source Tier (20%): Wire services and papers of record get a boost
• Importance (15%): Breaking news and major events are prioritized

No engagement optimization. No "you might also like." Just the news, ranked by how widely it's being reported.
