News Hack

There’s a lot of consternation about where to find the most accurate sources of news. Then, when you do find articles which pique your interest, they’re behind a paywall. This week’s act of service is to share a news hack shared with us a few weeks ago…

Copy the URL of the article you want to read and this website cuts through most website paywalls to give you access to full article.

  1. We are NOT advocating you don’t pay for any news sources, in fact hyperlocal sources are some of the most accurate, timely, and salient for your daily life.
  2. We ARE encouraging you to read beyond your confirmation bias. Broaden your worldview – even if you don’t agree with what you’re hearing – by adding 10% of your total media consumption from outside your traditional outlets.
    1. A Fox-and-Fox only watcher? Read something from The Atlantic or a YouTube video from The Bulwark.
    2. Conversely, if you’re an avid Bulwark-er, spend some time on Fox or NewsMax, or maybe even an episode of Steve Bannon or Joe Rogan.
  3. Now – go talk to your neighbors about what you learned – ESPECIALLY if they’re of a different bias than yours!

Happy serving!
