NewsGuard’s Reliability Ratings Now Appear in ChatGPT and Gemini Responses

“NewsGuard today announced that it has upgraded its browser extension, (available for download here) to work inside ChatGPT and Google Gemini — displaying its nonpartisan trust scores and providing access to its “Nutrition Labels” next to every source those AI tools cite. The upgrade enables users to see, at a glance, whether the websites on which AI-generated answers are based are reliable or not — bringing NewsGuard’s nonpartisan, journalist-reviewed credibility data into the AI tools that hundreds of millions of people now consult for everyday research, news, and decision-making. With this integration, subscribers to NewsGuard’s reliability ratings see trust scores displayed inline next to each source cited in ChatGPT and Gemini responses. For example, a chatbot answer that relies on TASS — the Russian government-owned wire service that NewsGuard rates 15 out of 100 including for publishing false or egregiously misleading Kremlin propaganda — will flag that score right in the chat window, warning AI users to “proceed with maximum caution.”
