About Subtext

Subtext: Instant Context for Every Article Stop guessing who is behind the news. Subtext is a lightweight sidebar that instantly reveals the publisher's background, political leaning, and potential bias as you read. Features: Bias context: Instantly see if a source leans Left, Right, or Center. Lateral Reading: One click to see how other news outlets are covering the exact same topic. Publisher Profiles: Get a quick Wikipedia summary of the site you are visiting. Why Subtext? In the age of misinformation, context is everything. Subtext helps you read critically without leaving the page. Privacy First: We do not track your history. Subtext checks the URL only to find relevant context and coverage.
