Media literacy
made simple

Crosswire helps you see beyond individual headlines. By placing outlets side by side, editorial patterns become visible — which stories lead, which are buried, and how language differs.

For News Readers

If you follow current events across multiple sources, Crosswire saves you the effort of visiting each outlet individually. One page, all the headlines.

For Media Researchers

Crosswire is built for studying editorial framing, agenda-setting and media bias — within one country or across borders. The Left, Center and Right labels are approximate orientations drawn from widely cited assessments by AllSides, Ad Fontes Media and Media Bias/Fact Check.

For Educators

Use Crosswire in the classroom to teach media literacy. Show students how the same event gets different emphasis and language depending on the outlet.
