Summary
ChromeView is an extension for Facebook that provides alternative sources to read the same news article in an attempt to limit the effect of fake news. We use the lateral.io news recommender API to serve you related news articles from various less biased sources. We try to recommend articles that may be from a different political leaning from what you are used to reading in order to give you a new perspective on news. The meter at the top changes as you read recommended articles based on the new article's political leaning. This allows you to get a better perspective of your own political leaning and how it changes based on reading articles that we recommend. Red is more conservative and blue is more liberal. Hover over the white heading section of an article and start reading!
Current Version Works With Sources: Fox, CNN, Breitbart More to be added soon!
