A Seattle company called SpinSpotter has created software that will flag questionable elements in online news in order to give the reader an unbiased viewpoint, the New York Times reports. The company strives to be non-partisan and was founded by Todd Herman and John Atcheson, who represent the two ends of the political spectrum. The software is currently available as a Mozilla Firefox browser add-on, with a version for Internet Explorer coming soon.
