@mcknco By "page" you must not mean screen. b/c that's pretty easy.

How did you decide which bias to give a news source? Anything pop up as hard to label? NewsAPI has author info; do you think/can you test to see if there is another level of bias there? i.e. Fox news might have one left-leaning writer (anything is possible....). Maybe a rating system to rate which way readers feel specific articles lean, and then apply that to sources/authors? (ok, I know I know, that would be a shit show). And as always: any thoughts about going open source? NewsAPI is new to me, and you've made great use of it! I'm excited to play a bit with it. Maybe I could use partial press as a way to filter out the biased crap :)

@mcknco Just saw this. I'm gonna fork it and play around a bit, maybe see if I can redo it in node, python, somethin. Just for fun/practice, no going public and stealing your millions :D
