I've tried it and I absolutely do not trust it.

And them covering left and right is part of it, yes. It works with made up American definitions of left and right, in which centrists to moderate rights are put on the left. As a result, international coverage is normally represented as left-biased, while really, Ground News and a broader American political landscape is right-biased. This is not a fair coverage and it and it doesn't allow you to break through the propaganda.

Overall, concept is good, but if you follow this and think you are well-balanced and informed, you are not.
