On today’s show, we’ll feature an interview with the founders of NewsGuard, a journalism project that applies nutrition labels to media outlets.

Steve Brill and Gordon Crovitz, the co-CEOs of NewsGuard, speak to The Daily Signal about the mission of NewsGuard and how their rating system works. Earlier this year, NewsGuard gave The Daily Signal a rare perfect rating.

The two veteran journalists and news entrepreneurs also share their advice for journalists and discuss the impact social media companies have had on misinformation circulating today. Listen to the full interview below.
