News Diet: Balanced News Aggregator

A customizable news aggregator providing a balanced mix of articles from across the political spectrum, helping you stay informed with diverse viewpoints.

What is News Diet?

News Diet is a news aggregation website and mobile app that provides readers with news articles from a diverse range of political leanings and perspectives. Its goal is to help people get out of their political bubbles and media echo chambers by exposing them to news stories they may not otherwise see.

When you first sign up for News Diet, you take a short political quiz which determines where you fall on the political spectrum. News Diet then constructs a personalized news feed for you, drawing articles from left-leaning, centrist, and right-leaning news sources. So if you lean liberal, you'll get articles from liberal sites, but also centrist sites and conservative sites. This ensures you don't just see news that confirms your existing beliefs.

In addition to the news feed based on your quiz results, News Diet allows you to fully customize which news sources you want to draw articles from across the political spectrum. You can also choose to hide articles from specific news sites if desired. There are options to share interesting articles with friends and community discussion boards to engage with people of differing viewpoints.
