Show HN: CiteIt – Building Trust in Responsible Media by Showing Quote Context (citeit.net)

THE PROBLEM:

Many people don't trust the Media and are suspicious that quotes may be fabricated or taken out of context.

FEEDBACK REQUESTED

I created an app called CiteIt which looks up quotes that have a cited URL and displays the surrounding context if a match is found.

The app is open source (MIT) and I'm looking for feedback on the idea and implementation.
