Inspiration

We were inspired by the massive amount of misinformation and bias in today's news. We wanted to create an app that can spot bias and inform users of the bias in their news sources.

What it does

The program is supposed to read the text given and from there, parse the text for keywords that indicate bias, and from there, we give it a biased score. That score will tell how and if the text is biased.

How I built it

We used JavaScript, Python,

Challenges I ran into

We ran into a lot of issues in parse, and because of that, the code gives very sporadic answers.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

What I learned

What's next for PolitiScore

In the future, we hope to make this app more functional, along with pairing it with a Machine Learning algorithm to better assess bias.
