News Breakdown is Post factum’s fresh weekly email. 

It is also our latest tool to help you navigate the rapid stream of endless news. 

Every week, we focus on a major global event and explain the different angles that international media presented it at. 

With our newsletter, you will:

  • Explore political leanings and biases of the media, from long-standing newspapers to independent websites and local outlets.

  • Understand geopolitics behind the news, and how the events were perceived globally at the time.

  • Learn how to spot manipulation, and how to predict if an outlet would give neutral reporting of an event.

  • Follow up on past news: what were the long-term consequences? Were predictions accurate?
