Feedly does this, although as a college student their Pro+ plan (which organizes by topic) is too pricey for me :-/. I still love the concept. https://feedly.com/i/pro/

They update their likelihood of lab origin from 1.4% to 42% solely based on the virus originating in Wuhan. They use fancy words like "evidence" but I don't even see a clear reference to Bayes.

I like it, especially the up-front demo! For a while I've been wanting to learn Org Mode, and this redesign is making it much more clear to me what Org Mode is and how I'd use it.
