We're in an election cycle and are continually being bombarded with political statements. In an effort to help readers be able to develop their own opinions based on available content, we want you (the hackers) to develop an API that will help a content consumer understand what is objective and what might be subjective in text. This might work by having a plugin in your browser that when activated, scans the text and highlights subjective/emotive parts of it with a view to helping the reader better analyze the information contained within. The end goal is to be able to analyze any text and highlight non-objective aspects for it so that readers can form their own opinions in a more fully informed manner.
