>The headlines differences between, say, Washington Post, CNN, The Hill, and Fox News for the same news blurb is even more dramatic than I'd expect when you put them up side-by-side.
Can you give a concrete example of this? I'm definitely interested in seeing how big the differences are
- bduerst 8y agoIt's pretty evident if you just look. I literally just grabbed some headlines off the North Korea Summit topic: - WaPo: Trump dangles White House visit for North Korea’s Kim if summit goes well - Fox News: Trump forced Kim Jong Un to 'beg' for meeting, Giuliani says - CNN: How is Donald Trump preparing for the huge North Korea summit? He's not. - Reuters: Latte art and a gym ad: Kim Jong Un's softer image in South Korea
- ehudla 8y agoThey should use color coded background on key words, using sentiment analysis. Then you could see the contrast without having to read all the headlines. (Though, "beg" here, for example, is positive, while in most contexts it is probably negative.)
- bduerst 8y agoThat could be easily executed as a chrome extension!
- marmshallow 8y agoWow, this really is dramatic and telling!
- fwip 8y agoAn example from today (first political result on my screen): - Reuters: Trump says Russia should be at G7 meeting, Moscow not so sure - CNN: Trump: Russia should be in the G7 summit - TheHill: An isolated Trump attends the G-7 - Fox News: Trump prepares for North Korea summit as a great performer -- like Reagan
