Give a Family a Year — $60

Why this gift matters

My father, born in the 1950s, was the fifth of nine children. In his house, the family did not have separate “kids' news” and “adult news.” They experienced the same important stories together.

Graduated News brings some of that shared context back: real news, rewritten at six reading levels so kids and adults can understand the same world.

One year for one family

  • Today's real headlines at the right reading level
  • Helps children and adults discuss the same stories
  • No popups. No paywalls. No distracting clutter
  • One $60 payment — you are not enrolled in a subscription

The same real story, at the right level

Every Graduated News story is written once at six reading levels — from Grade 4 through Grade 12 — so kids and adults can talk about the same headlines.

China Says AI Should Be Shared, Not Controlled by a Few Big Countries

Level 1

China's most important newspaper said on Wednesday that artificial intelligence, or AI, should not be controlled by just a few powerful countries. The newspaper, called the People's Daily, said the United States and China should work together to make AI safe and fair for everyone. It said AI must be open to all countries, not just the biggest and strongest ones.

Level 4

China's most powerful state newspaper is pushing back against the United States over artificial intelligence. On Wednesday, the People's Daily — the official newspaper of China's ruling Communist Party — published a commentary saying that AI belongs to all countries, not just the most powerful ones. The piece called on the U.S. to cooperate with China in managing AI risks and building a fair environment for all nations to develop the technology.
