Search Box Summary

AllSides Balanced Search is in beta. Check back here for updates, or send us feedback.

AllSides Balanced Search reveals information and ideas from all sides of the political spectrum so you can get the full picture. Use this tool to get results from AllSides.com and from sites across the web.

Too often, search engines provide only a narrow perspective. They give you the most popular results or results that best fit your profile so they can sell more advertising. That may be fine for searches like, "how to carve a turkey," or "how to boil an egg," but it's terrible for subjective topics, politics, or controversial issues where you want to see a broader, more complete picture that includes diverse perspectives.

Free Yourself from Filter Bubbles

AllSides provides media bias ratings for hundreds of media outlets, source and writers. We use our media bias ratings to provide search results spanning the political spectrum. We free you from filter bubbles that can mislead and manipulate. A filter bubble occurs when we are only exposed to information that confirms our existing beliefs. Filter bubbles block out facts, analysis or perspectives that might be contrary to what we already think or what is most popular, leading to groupthink and manipulation.
Get a broader view and decide for yourself with the AllSides Balanced Search.
