Abstract
Systems and methods are provided of evaluating content for bias. The biases of participants, content, and/or sources are considered. Bias ratings are calculated for participants, content, and/or sources and affect one another. A user interface is provided for content, such as news media content showing a bias rating for the content.
Claims11
A method for displaying content in accordance with content bias ratings, said method comprising:
- receiving content from one or more sources;
- receiving, via a user input device, bias ratings from one or more participants for the content;
- calculating, with aid of a programmable processor, a content bias rating for the content based on the bias ratings from the participants;
- generating, with aid of the programmable processor, a user interface shown on a display based on the content bias ratings;
- and
- showing, using a display, a user interface showing the content, wherein the content is divided into visually distinct regions such that content having a content bias rating falling within a first range is shown in a first region and content having a content bias rating falling within a second range is shown in a second region.
3 more elements
A method for determining bias rating categories, said method comprising;
- providing one or more dimensions of bias;
- providing, via a display, content to a plurality of survey participants;
- receiving, via a user input device, ratings along the one or more dimensions of bias for the content from the plurality of survey participants;
- calculating, with aid of a processor, the placement of results along the one or more dimensions of bias based on the ratings collected from the plurality of survey participants;
- and
- selecting, with aid of the processor, results falling into concentrated cluster regions along the one or more dimensions as bias rating categories.
