NewsTrust in the News: Marin Independent Journal

NewsTrust received a favorable review in the Marin Independent Journal.

Mill Valley Internet reformer tries to increase journalistic integrity
"The concept behind Newstrust is similar to popular aggregators such as Digg.com and Reddit.com, which provide news headlines and links to news stories based on rankings and submissions by readers. But instead of trafficking in snarky commentary, Newstrust ranks its stories based on quality.

A pop-up window appears next to articles and asks users whether multiple points of view are presented, numerous sources are used rather than only a few, and if the author is editorializing or providing an honest assessment of information."
