📡 About Us and Our Mission
The Public Planet is a news platform designed to cut through noise, distortion, and agenda-driven spin — no matter where it comes from. We aggregate headlines from across the political and geographic spectrum, then surface the framing behind the story so you can decide what matters — without manipulation.
We’re not here to tell you what to think. We’re here to help you see what’s being said, how it’s being said, and why.
We’ll soon be adding user accounts and the ability to comment on “Rowan’s Take,” our framing analysis section — because we want your take too. Your email and personal information will never be shared without explicit permission, and we’re actively working on a compensation structure that will allow you to lease access to your own behavioral data when and how you choose — and get compensated fairly for it.
We will also be importing published articles from media outlets you may not be familiar with — especially from outside your native language. With our translation selector, you’ll be able to access and read those perspectives too, building bridges across borders and narratives alike.
This is The Public Planet: open by design, driven by truth, and focused on making information accessible and without manipulation. Please join us in our mission to rediscover what healthy discourse looks like.
Sincerely,
Hylan
🧭 How to Use The Public Planet
- Browse the Front Page
Explore the latest headlines, grouped by event and tagged by bias. You’ll quickly see how different perspectives frame the same story. - Choose a Bias or Topic
Use the navigation bar to view stories from a particular lens: Liberal, Moderate, Libertarian, Conservative, Satire, or Investigations. - Read “Rowan’s Take”
Many articles include framing analysis that highlights subtext, emotional hooks, and narrative influence. We surface the bias — we don’t push one. - Use the Language Selector
Want to read content or comments in your own language? Use the dropdown at the top to instantly translate any page. - Save Your Favorites (Coming Soon)
You’ll be able to save up to 20 articles in a private favorites list — a space to revisit what stood out to you. Later, we may add the ability to take notes or draft public comments you can choose to publish on the homepage. - Support Original Work
We don’t host full articles — every headline links directly to the original publication. Your clicks help fund the journalists doing the digging. - Own Your Data (Also Coming Soon)
User accounts are on the way, with full transparency. You’ll control what you share — and even lease your behavioral data on your own terms, for compensation if you choose.
