Features & Capabilities

This extension identifies fake & unreliable news and helps to identify media bias. Trusted Times is a unique Google Chrome extension that detects fake and unreliable news. It's the only extension that helps you identify bias (if any) in each news article.

Using advanced machine learning algorithms, it also presents additional analysis of any news article to show a reporter’s and news source’s bias, if any.

It helps you to read any news article like a pro.

Trusted Times is different from other fake news detectors because:

  • It screens the largest selection of local, state and national news websites and blogs in United States.

  • Only extension that provides an ability to treat each journalist and news article independently – as opposed to classifying an entire newspaper’s political bias as “left, center or right”.

  • Identifies if the article is fake, unreliable, verified or mainstream media news

  • Provides a summary of verified and mainstream media news articles

  • Scans the article to identify important and relevant subjects and topics discussed in the news article

  • Only extension to present an analysis of an article’s bias or sentiment towards the mentioned subject

  • Only extension to provide a historical analysis of the reporter’s bias towards the mentioned subject

  • Only extension to provide a historical analysis of the news website's bias towards the mentioned subject

Trusted Times recognizes any news organization such as New York Times or Politico consists of hundreds of reporters each with a unique perspective, built-in schema/bias, ideas or writing style.

Trusted Times leverages advanced machine learning algorithms to analyze each article’s language reflecting an author's opinion or attitude towards any given subject.

This way a journalist with a unique persuasion or possible agenda for whatever reason is exposed as biased towards a subject or a person even if they work at a news organization consistently known for its own political slant, i.e., left, right or neutral.

Trusted Times is perfect for everyone seeking a reliable resource to gauge credible news sources, i.e., teachers seeking an educational tool distinguishing the verifiable and reliable source of news based on fact.

Is Trusted Times Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Trusted Times requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Trusted Times may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
