Thread: Can you believe "fact checker" sites?

    Can you believe "fact checker" sites?

    Politifact is a Pulitzer prize winning website operated by the Tampa BayTimes which, encouragingly, has been the accused of being biased by Liberals and Conservatives in the USA.

    I've just been having a look at it and found it fascinating, but can any of it be believed?

    Fullfact.org is a good one for the UK. They seem to be pretty even handed.

    I think the best to evaluate sites as this is to seek and research other news blogs and make your own mind up , that why I like site slike http://www.newsnow.co.uk/h/ as it gives you a menu of views on the same subject matter.

    I would also trust the BBC when it comes to facts. What maybe not so unbiased about the bbc is the scheduling of topics for debate. They used to have Anjem Choudry on (so did Channel 4) until he got banged up.
    You may be better off getting your answers directly from God
