ESCAPE from JUNK NEWS: Home

The AllSides Mission:
Free people from filter bubbles so they can better understand the world and each other.

PolitiFact is a fact-checking website that rates the accuracy of claims by elected officials and others on its Truth-O-Meter.

Our Mission:
We are a nonpartisan, nonprofit “consumer advocate” for voters that aims to reduce the level of deception and confusion in U.S. politics. We monitor the factual accuracy of what is said by major U.S. political players in the form of TV ads, debates, speeches, interviews and news releases. Our goal is to apply the best practices of both journalism and scholarship, and to increase public knowledge and understanding.

The definitive Internet reference source for urban legends, folklore, myths, rumors, and misinformation.
