About PressAudit
Get all the news at a glance: what's getting attention or being ignored, and how a story shifts across the media by partisan lean and other factors. We analyze thousands of articles from the world's top news outlets every day, scoring them for political lean, source quality, public-interest value and coverage patterns. Get the most important news, not just the loudest distractions. FEATURES Heatmap See the entire news day as one readable map. Search and filter by attention, outlet, topic, geography, partisan lean, quality and time. Start here For every story, the best article to read first, including the top article you can read without a paywall. Faceoffs See the same polarizing story from opposing outlets, with excerpts from the articles themselves side by side. Blindspots Track stories dominating one side of the media while barely appearing on the other. Regulations Follow news on federal rules, dockets and proposals open for public comment, then build your own comment step by step and file it yourself on the official regulations.gov docket. Predictions Follow predictions on the major events driving the news, see the related coverage, and make your own call. Article Scores Article-level analysis of partisan lean (article and outlet), editorial quality and public-interest substance. Outlet Rankings Compare news outlets by partisan lean, quality, coverage volume and the stories they choose to elevate or ignore. Alerts and notifications Follow rules, predictions and interests and see what changed on your Alerts page. Optional push notifications for breaking news, prediction results, regulation updates and the weekly quiz. Breaking pushes between 10 pm and 7 am your time arrive silently.

New on the Midterms pages: sort House, Senate and Governor races by 7-day movement. The Home Midterms card rotates between the Senate and House forecasts and maps, and always links to the full forecast. The coverage card shows Article lean and Outlet lean meters under the heatmap. New: a short tour of the feed controls the first time you open a feed. Maps open on the Composite rating. Focus from the Left and Focus from the Right now appear as finding labels on story cards.
