About MediaPedia
We believe that trust in news starts with transparency. Our platform sheds light on the bias and perspectives behind each story, helping you navigate diverse viewpoints and stay informed. See where stories stand, and empower yourself with a more complete understanding.
About Us
MediaPedia, a project of American Independent Media, empowers Americans to uncover the truth behind the headlines by using transparency as a tool to reveal media bias. Bias itself is not inherently negative; it’s a human trait, not a partisan one. However, we seek to expose those in the media who attempt to hide their bias, whether overtly or covertly.
With a data-driven analysis of news bias, MediaPedia provides clear insights into the credibility and biases of journalists, media organizations, and content. By making bias transparent on both sides of the political spectrum, MediaPedia exposes the lens through which journalists are covering the most important issues of our time. Our non-partisan approach dismantles hidden agendas and equips users with the tools to navigate today’s complex media landscape with clarity and confidence.
Mission
MediaPedia exposes the inherent bias in news reporting and addresses the harm caused by its lack of transparency. Through our extensive database of media bias transparency ratings, we help Americans see through hidden agendas and navigate news with clarity and confidence.
