Our Story

News the way it was meant to be read.

We built Good News Media because we got tired of not being able to trust what we read. This is our attempt to fix that — one story at a time.

The Founder
J
Jacob Forsythe
Founder & CEO
I built Good News Media out of frustration. I'd spend 30 minutes reading the news and come away more confused, more anxious, and less informed than when I started. Every outlet had a slant. Every headline was engineered to provoke. I couldn't tell what was true and what was spin.

So I built the product I wanted to exist — one that tells you where a source leans, whether a claim checks out, and lets you filter by how a story makes you feel. Not to hide from hard news, but to read it on your own terms.

Our Mission

An informed public is a healthier democracy.

Good News Media exists to give people back their relationship with the news. Not by softening reality or filtering out hard truths — but by giving readers the context, transparency, and control they deserve.

We believe media bias isn't going away. We believe AI fact-checking isn't perfect. We believe no single outlet has the full picture. So we built a platform that shows you all of that — openly, honestly, and without hiding the seams.

What We Stand For

Built on principles, not pageviews.

Most news products are optimized for engagement — which means outrage, anxiety, and addiction. We're optimizing for something different.

⚖️
Radical Transparency
Every source is labeled. Every bias score is shown. We never hide where information comes from.
🧠
Honest AI
Our AI fact-checking shows its reasoning. Claim by claim. Score by score. You decide what to believe.
🎛️
Reader Control
Filter by mood, bias, topic, or credibility. Your feed should work for you, not the other way around.
🚫
No Outrage Bait
We don't rank stories by what makes you angry. We surface what's important, verified, and well-reported.

Common Questions

Things people ask us.

Is the bias labeling accurate?
Our bias labels are based on a curated database of 65+ major news sources, drawing from publicly available media bias research. No labeling system is perfect — these are starting points for your own judgment, not verdicts.
How does the AI fact checking work?
Each story is analyzed by Claude AI (Anthropic), which identifies specific factual claims, assesses each one for credibility, and assigns a confidence score. It's a tool, not a replacement for critical reading.
Is Good News Media free?
Yes, completely free right now. We plan to introduce a Pro tier with premium features. The core product will always have a free version.
Do you have a political agenda?
No. We pull from Left through Right sources deliberately and label bias openly. If you think we're being unfair to any part of the political spectrum, we want to hear about it.
How do I get in touch?
Email coming soon — TBD. Check back shortly.

The Opportunity

Trust in media is at an all-time low.

Americans spend an average of 4+ hours per week consuming news. Yet trust in the media has fallen to historic lows. Nobody has built the transparent, reader-first news platform that this moment demands. We're building it.

AI analyzes every story for credibility — claim by claim, scored 0–100
