Sidewire
Sidewire was a political news analysis platform available for the iOS marketplace. It was founded in 2012 by Andy Bromberg and Tucker Bounds, former spokesperson for the 2008 presidential campaign of John McCain.[1] The app was launched at the beginning of the 2016 election cycle, originally billed as "Twitter for politics." Sidewire failed to build a substantial user base, and by June 2017 Sidewire ran out of investment and ceased operations.[1][2]
