NotNews! in Chrome with OffiDocs
NotNews! Chrome web store extension
DESCRIPTION:
Run the Chrome online web store extension NotNews! using OffiDocs Chromium online.
This extension alerts you when you're on a news site that isn't deemed "real news" by Melissa Zimdars, assistant professor of communication & media at Merrimack College.The inspiration for this extension comes from her work 'False, Misleading, Clickbait-y, and Satirical “News” Sources'.
Update: the alert now also displays the reason for the site's categorization as "fake news" if one has been provided in Zimdars' research.
Update 2: Added additional questionable source URLs as well as Facebook hover-over warnings, inspired by BSDetector.
