Now, exactly how do we accomplish this? Spinspotter lets you do the following:

* Create your own spin markers to alert others to spin you discover.
* See spin markers created by others, and by SpinSpotter`s user-fed algorithms.
* Share examples of egregious spin with your friends.
* Edit the spin to bring out the truth.
* Be alerted when the article you`re reading is really just a recycled press release.

SpinSpotter does this by bringing together three key parts:

1. An advisory board of prominent journalists from across the political spectrum who set objective rules for what constitutes "spin"
2. A uniquely guided form of crowd-sourcing that operates strictly within the rules set by SpinSpotter`s Journalism Advisory Board
3. A computer algorithm that constantly learns from users` input and leverages that knowledge across all news sites


Spin doesn`t belong in the news. It`s like putting motor oil in the mojito. We have tremendous respect for journalists, but who would argue that the media circus isn`t out of control? A full 66% of Americans think the press is one-sided. Now there`s a website and software tool that exposes news spin and bias, misuse of sources, and suspect factual support. At SpinSpotter, you`ll experience the news in a profound new way. Yes, the truth is back in town.
