The Issue

Something is wrong with the way Americans get their news.

In 2026, news is built to keep you watching, not to help you understand. Stories are framed to fit narratives. Outrage gets rewarded with clicks. Viewers are left feeling manipulated instead of informed. 

This is not a left or right problem. It is a trust problem.

When we are pushed to react instead of think, and to pick a side instead of understand an issue, we lose something essential: the ability to make informed decisions.

By signing this petition, you are saying:

  • News should inform, not inflame.
  • People deserve tools to compare coverage and recognize framing.
  • Healthier news habits build a better-informed electorate.

If you believe the country needs a healthier way to consume news, sign and share. Every signature is proof that demand for something better is real.

Watch the short video on how we plan to address this.

Thank you for reading,
Bob
