It's good to hear that media literacy is being taught like that in high schools. Education on the topic is the best sure-fire solution in the long term.

We really like AllSides but where I think our product differs is that we say that sides don't really matter if you get to see everything reported on the story from all publishers.

If you go to an article from the right in our app, we'll inject content from the left (and everyone else) in-context when you tap on a highlighted piece of text. And vice-versa, if you go to an article from the left, you'll also see reporting from the right (and everyone else). You don't have to go looking for the other articles.

A clever news reader will go out and read several articles from different viewpoints on a particular story, but the idea here is that it shouldn't be a manual process when technology can present it to you conveniently.

Cool idea regarding duplicate detection, but it would have to be from a neutral perspective and not point at the left/right as that will only widen divides further. Maybe a list showing all the details that appeared in a story ordered by the number of articles that covered each.
