Matt,

I'm late to the response party, I see. Yes, it was allsides.com 

This resource is amazing and generally accurate (in my opinion) in its identification of political leanings. Website states that All Sides uses a mysterious algorithm partially based on "a combination of wisdom-of-the-crowd technology and the best statistical research and methodologies"

Here's an activity suggestion that I have been planning  to use as part of a lesson series with All Sides:

Use Pew Research http://www.people-press.org/quiz/political-typology/  - students identify own biases first before exploring media bias.


They've recently expanded to include a program for schools:

"AllSides For Schools delivers online and in-class programs for healthy communication and understanding of diverse perspectives to foster dialog, collaboration and critical thought. • Grades: 6-12 and college • Standards: Addresses Common Core and state standards for 6 – 12th grades. Ideal for Language Arts, Communications and Social Sciences (including History and Civics). • Cost: Free non-profit pilot program "

Good luck and please let the group know how you use the site!  I'm looking for ideas.

Thanks,

I remember last year or the year before, someone posted a website that had news outlets listed by left, right and center.

 

Did anyone remember to save that?

 

Thanks!
