I've actually found that Improve the News [1] is good for something like that. It has sliders to let you select what kind of new you are looking for with one of the sliders which controls "shelf life" ranging from short to long and "recency" from evergreen to recent. Not exactly what you are looking for, but I've found it can serve a similar purpose.

I think that left/right categorization thing actually makes it worse. I'd like a "just the facts" option.

I used to think the same, but eventually realized that both "facts" and, perhaps most especially, the omission-of-coverage categorize a journal as left or right...

Even the words a journal uses are dog whistles for "we think alike". "Latinx" versus "Latino". "Illegal Immigrant" vs "Undocumented Worker".

Wow, that's super neat. Thank you for sharing.
