360° Stance Detection
Sebastian Ruder | John Glover | Afshin Mehrabani | Parsa Ghaffari
Proceedings of the 2018 Conference of the North American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics: Demonstrations

The proliferation of fake news and filter bubbles makes it increasingly difficult to form an unbiased, balanced opinion towards a topic. To ameliorate this, we propose 360° Stance Detection, a tool that aggregates news with multiple perspectives on a topic. It presents them on a spectrum ranging from support to opposition, enabling the user to base their opinion on multiple pieces of diverse evidence.
