Issue Dictionary is a comprehensive and unbiased source of information on
United States politics. We do not take money from political groups and
everything on the site is contributed and approved by users. We ensure
all information on the site is accurate by requiring a citation for every
fact. Furthermore, we only use first hand sources such as a video of a
politician speaking or an online interview. The information is
conveniently displayed in multiple formats so that users can quickly
find what they are looking for. Finally, every change to the site is
documented to provide a written account of our activities.
During the summer of 2007, we were debating the upcoming presidential
election and we became frustrated with the mainstream media's coverage
of politics. We turned to the Internet to fill our void but we only
found partisanship and fraudulent stories. There was no source of
comprehensive and fact driven political coverage. This is when we
started designing Issue Dictionary.
