It starts with you: the news you read reveals your biases. At RISE Reporting we use Ground News to help students check their news habits and see where they fall on the political spectrum — paired with a RISE quiz built on the research about how U.S. politics shapes the media we consume.
Our free training and worksheet are from our ACP Workshop Training, 2025.
