The Ground News team is based in Kitchener, Canada, and is made up of a small team of media industry outsiders. We are not funded by a media company, big tech, government affiliations nor institutional investors - we are supported by our subscribers and a small group of individual investors who care about the problem personally.
This looks more like a tool for people working with “sentiment analysis” than to get the properly informed.
Not a trustworthy methodology.

Be interesting to see who these investors are. Any bets on folk with a vested interest in making certain parties look good?
