About MeydaNews
MeydaNews · میدانیوز
See more of the story by comparing the coverage.
MeydaNews helps readers explore reporting from Iran, Germany and the United States, identify sources and compare what different headlines emphasize before consulting the original reports.
Why MeydaNews?
A single headline rarely provides all the context. Our aim is to make checking several sources easier and differences in coverage visible. Evaluating a claim still requires examining the underlying evidence and context.
One story, several perspectives
Compare related headlines and reporting, then follow the original publisher for context.
Traceable sources
Follow publisher names, report links and available timestamps to check what you are reading.
An explained method
Assess the results with a clear account of collection, translation and automated grouping limitations.
Who is it for?
For curious readers, students, researchers and journalists who want to examine coverage from several angles. The dashboard supports Persian, English and German; information pages and public examples are available in Persian and English.
Where should I start?
- Choose a country edition and language on the dashboard.
- Open a story cluster and compare its publishers and headlines.
- Read the original reports for context and detail.
Transparency and limitations
Automated collection, translation and analysis can be wrong. Source coverage is incomplete, and several publishers may carry the same syndicated report. Multiple source names do not prove a claim. Public examples show their snapshot dates and original sources.
Team, identity and contact
The platform is operated by the MeydaNews team. Our English name is MeydaNews and our Persian name is میدانیوز. Our official website is www.meydanews.com.
Corrections and feedback

Common questions
Is MeydaNews a news agency?
MeydaNews is a news-comparison tool. Original reporting belongs to the linked publishers; we collect and compare coverage.
Does a high score mean a story is true?
No. Cluster confidence is a grouping heuristic, not a factual accuracy score or a publisher credibility rating.
Why is a report missing from a country edition?
The selected country identifies a source collection. Publication delays, fetch failures and differences in source coverage can leave reports missing.
Are public comparisons live?
Public comparisons are fixed, dated snapshots. Use the dashboard for current coverage. Corrections to snapshots receive a date and explanation.
