Fact-check statistics
Counts are based only on what fact-checking organisations themselves published. Since 12 Apr 2024, 15:14 UTC.
SourceTally counts how many independent outlets carry a story; it does not judge whether a story is true. Fact-check ratings are quoted from the organisation that published them. How this works
