News Analyzer

This Chrome extension is a powerful news analysis tool that allows users to evaluate, in an automated and visual way, the inclinations and trends of an article. It can check and visualize seven critical components of a news text, offering an in-depth analysis of the quality and bias of the information. These components are displayed graphically, as demonstrated in the attached image, where colored bars and circles indicate the ratings for each analyzed metric. The interface is user-friendly and provides direct visual feedback so users can quickly understand the main characteristics of the text.

Here is a detailed description of the seven analyses performed by the extension:

1. Polarization Analysis

This analysis aims to detect the degree of polarization present in the text. Polarization refers to the tendency of an article to align with a specific ideological perspective, whether it be left, right, or center. The extension’s algorithm checks for signs of extremism or moderation and classifies the content as follows:

- Highly polarized: The text strongly aligns with an extremist ideological view.

- Moderately polarized: The text shows noticeable but not extreme ideological leanings.
