I kind of got back to looking at my newsbetting app called Rashomon. I posted about it on here a few weeks ago to no attention.

Basically you get untitled articles and have to bet whether they are from far left, left, center, right or far right sources. The idea was to maek readers aware of their biases. I wrote my findings here: https://nassharaf.github.io/ideasthete/projects/Rashomon.htm...

You can demo the site here: https://www.rashomonnews.com

Ok thanks for letting me know. I haven't encountered this before, but I appreciate you telling me about it. Thank you so much!!!
Sounds like an interesting concept.

Is there a demo account we can use to test it out? or maybe give 1 or 2 articles for free so people can get a feel of it and then have them setup an account after.

This is a great idea, I think I'll try that out and let you know. Good idea!!
