01 / OpeningHow to read this

You’re not just reading the news.
You’re analyzing it.

One story can sound different depending on who tells it, which details lead, and when you look.

Begin with the idea

02 / THE IDEA

From what happened
to how it is told.

Most news tells you what happened. Scroll News helps you understand how stories are told across sources and over time.

Read coverage for the patterns beneath the headlines: tone, framing, and how a story evolves.

03 / OUR PHILOSOPHY

No ads. No outrage.
Just information — organized.

Scroll News is designed to help you understand coverage without being pushed, distracted, or pulled into endless reaction cycles.

04 / SENTIMENT

A reading of tone,
not a verdict.

Sentiment summarizes whether an article reads as positive, neutral, or negative. Treat it as a signal to inspect alongside the reporting itself.

Sentiment labels shown in Scroll News
PositiveOptimistic tone
NeutralMore even in tone
NegativeCritical or concerning

If sources disagree, the overall picture may feel mixed. “Mixed” is an interpretation, not a separate sentiment label in the current analysis view.

05 / EMOTIONS

Notice the emotional signal.

Emotional reactions add another way to read an article’s tone. They are cues for closer reading, not a substitute for your own judgment.

06 / NARRATIVE FRAMES

One event.
Three ways into the story.

A frame is an angle that brings certain questions to the foreground. Compare the perspectives; don’t mistake any single one for the whole story.

Illustrative eventA city considers a congestion charge

Perspective 01Economic impact

Who pays, and who benefits?

Consider costs for commuters, local businesses, and the city.

Perspective 02Public safety

What changes on the street?

Consider traffic, emergency access, and neighborhood safety.

Perspective 03Political strategy

How is the decision defended?

Consider who supports the proposal and how leaders explain it.

A fictional teaching example, not Scroll News analysis or a report about a real event.

Comparing frames can help you notice emphasis, omissions, and perspective across coverage.

07 / ENTITIES

Stories connect through people, places, and organizations.

Select an entity in Scroll News to open its analysis across articles. Follow how the surrounding coverage and sentiment shift over time.

08 / TIME MATTERS

Change the window.
See a different span.

Analysis can look across the last 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. A wider window gives more history to compare: coverage, sentiment, and narratives can all move.
