With the current number of political news sources and media outlets available, trying to stay up to date with politics can be quite overwhelming. Whether it be contradictory views or media bias, the political news landscape is becoming more complex and oversaturated. Many of these news sources can be dense and hard to navigate, making finding the content you actually want a daunting task. Vantage is a political news aggregation engine that simplifies the process of discovering, reading, and internalizing the latest news from the most popular political news sources. Our solution combines multiple news sources into a single consolidated news feed, making it quick and easy for users to navigate the potential bias of any one news source. Vantage makes consuming political news quick and effortless so that readers spend more time learning and less time searching.
