+ # Dataset Card for NEWSUNFOLD
20
+
21
+ ## Dataset Summary
22
+ **NEWSUNFOLD** contains sentence-level labels of linguistic media bias collected for the paper
23
+ *“NewsUnfold: Creating a News-Reading Application That Indicates Linguistic Media Bias and Collects Feedback”* (https://doi.org/10.1609/icwsm.v19i1.35847).
24
+
25
+ The dataset has **310** English news sentences with binary bias labels derived from user feedback on the NewsUnfold web app. Each record includes the sentence text, a bias label, an identifier, the source outlet, the original article URL, and a topic tag.
26
+
27
+ - **Collection window:** March 4-11, 2023
28
+ - **Label meaning:** `1` = biased, `0` = not biased
29
+ - **Selection rule:** Only sentences with a clear decision (≥5 votes) are included.

32
+
33
+ ## Use Cases
34
+ - Training/evaluating bias-detection models
35
+ - Auditing or probing linguistic bias signals in news sentences
36
+ - Complementing existing datasets (e.g., BABE) with user-feedback–grounded labels

+ abstract = {We present NewsUnfold, a news-reading web application that (1) indicates sentence-level linguistic media bias predictions to readers, (2) collects reader feedback on those predictions, and (3) releases a new dataset of sentences with community labels indicating perceived bias. In an in-the-wild study, participants used the app to read curated articles while seeing sentences highlighted as biased or not biased (per a baseline classifier). They could then agree or disagree with these highlights, producing crowd-sourced labels. Using only sentences with a clear decision (≥5 votes), we provide a 310-sentence dataset and report inter-annotator agreement (Krippendorff’s α = .504). We further train a classifier combining the BABE dataset with our new sentences, improving F1 to .824 (+2.49% vs. BABE alone), demonstrating that community feedback can refine bias-detection models and support transparent, user-in-the-loop media analysis.},
