Unfiltered News is an incredible website that allows to visualise what is happening in most countries of the world through an interactive map.
A tool that allows us to get out of the bubble in which we are locked by our interests and, above all, by our geographical location. Unfilitered News will take us a step further by offering us on a map the most important news topics in most countries of the world or at least in all the countries covered by Google News.
Because it is with Google news data that this service works to compile and organise all the information possible at a moment T.
The visual interface is a real success. It is a map of the world where you can walk around and zoom in at your leisure. For each country ‘Unfiltered News’ presents via keywords the 100 most mentioned topical topics. Ultra-convenient, the titles and related articles that appear on the right of the screen are translated into French or the language of your choice.
The size of each keyword varies depending on the number of recurrences in the country's media. By clicking on a word, you will see its importance in all other countries. A function that can make it possible to better gauge the importance of certain topics or themes in our daily sphere.
Very interesting also in the bottom of the 100 most mentioned topical topics in a country. The site also determines the "less discussed" news in the same country by comparing the number of times a topic is mentioned worldwide with the number of times it is mentioned in the reference country.
Add to that that you can also do a research on a topical topic that interests you to see how it is treated and what place it occupies in the different geographical areas and countries of the planet.
A bit like Radio Websites This will allow you and your students to gain a little height by observing how this or that subject is addressed in another country.
An original tool to change perspective on what is happening in the world and a great example of what data visualisation can bring to the understanding of a large amount of data.
Unfiltered News is free.
