Useful. Clear. Concise. Perfect

I love the design of the app, it makes reading the articles and understanding the content so incredibly clear and straightforward. A refreshing take on news from both the app designer and the article writer himself. Lovely app lovely content 10/10 recommend

Debate

Great to have someone checking facts. I always check Kessler after important events like this. Generally, I agree with findings. But many lies go unchecked. When Sanders says that we pay 10 times more for drugs in US than Canada, that is not true. We pay more but not 10 times more. When Sanders says we can lower drug prices by 50%, that can’t be true if average profit margin is 15-18%. These facts can be verified!

Love this app!

This is a well designed and informative app. I love it! Easy to navigate and very non biased. Everything we need to make an intelligent, well informed decision for ourselves in this polarized world we’re living in. Thank you!! Excellent job!
