NewsGuard's reliability ratings for news and information sources help users make decisions about which news sources to trust—and avoid misinformation and disinformation.
Our ratings, scores, and Nutrition Labels for websites are displayed next to links on search engines and social media platforms and cover all the news websites accounting for 95% of online engagement.
Ratings are conducted by a team of experienced journalists using nine basic, apolitical journalistic criteria. Each site receives a trust score of 0-100, an overall rating level ranging from “High Credibility” to “Proceed with Caution,” and a thorough Nutrition Label report detailing the site’s ownership and financing, content, credibility practices, transparency practices, and history.

Easily see what disclosures a site makes about ownership and content standards. Fair, uniform rating methodology that's fully disclosed. Simple and easy to use.
In spite of what some other readers believe, I find NewsGuard to be very informative and with an unbiased perspective.
Excellent app! If you have the need to prove the reliability or unreliability of a site, the detailed analysis in NewsGuard is invaluable.
Don't want to believe false news from wackadoodles or even worse people with hidden agendas. Be proactive in what you take in or for god sakes stop complaining. Use newguard!
NewsGuard is a "must have" in navigating fact based, unbiased news. I've been using it for a year and found it to be a reliable guide to trustworthy sites. It's opened by eyes because it gives high ratings to sites that often don't reflect my worldview, and makes me think twice about sites that I previously trusted. And NewsGuard tells you which standards the site has met or not met to achieve the rating the site was given - so it's transparent. Especially important now when many so called news outlets don't find it necessary to employ fact checkers anymore.
The world is full of misinformation -- and I spend my time trying to avoid false news and wish to center my focus on things that are generally factual. They have a reliable and non biased rating system and I love to scroll through my feed and know that if it's got a green check mark it's GOOD and if it has a red check mark I can just scroll past.
It's extremely helpful in determining whether to trust, and how much to trust, the many news and information sites out there these days. Well worth the money. While it's not perfect, i don't perceive any political bias. I do disagree on occasion with how it qualifies sources in some categories on both the left and the right, but mostly that's just nit-picking on my part. Overall it does a very thorough and creditable job. I see there are some reviewers who are critical of Newsguard. But it's apparent, at least to me, that they have a political axe to grind. Newsguard clearly doesn't.
Particularly in the era of the COVID-19 virus, it is important to understand how trustworthy the source of internet information is. Newsguard provides exactly that reassurance.
I find it really helpful and trustworthy.
Accurate and useful. I see some reviews which take Newsguard to task for questioning Breitbart, Drudge, etc. These are known purveyors of debunked conspiracy theories, Russian misinformation and right-wing agit-prop. Good for Newsguard for sticking to credible, curated news sources with valid editorial standards. I find it just as useful as FactChecker, Politifact and Snopes. It's up to all of us to stop the online lies and weaponized social media.
