Misleading is not analogous with True or False. Depending on the question, True or False can be objectively right/wrong. Misleading is going to be a judgement call. This is the inherent problem with "fact checking." It's hard to be completely objective. Even when the question has an objective answer, simply choosing where to look and what facts to verify is itself a bias. Looking at this instead of that, or looking at this but not also this other thing that adds context, etc. Frankly i think disagreeing often is the expected outcome. Fact checking is jsut kinda bullshit. It's spin dressed up as objectivity. I hope people remember that "fact checking" is a relatively modern thing. | ||
