At factcheck.org, our mission is to reduce the level of deception and confusion in U.S. politics. Our journalists monitor the factual accuracy of what is said by major U.S. political players and write articles aimed at increasing public knowledge and understanding.

We've been doing this for more than 20 years. We were launched in 2003, and we're a nonpartisan, nonprofit project of the Annenberg Public Policy Center of the University of Pennsylvania.  

We are bringing our work to Substack to increase our reach.

On our free Substack, we will post short snippets of our stories with links to the full articles on our website, allowing you to stay up to date with our coverage.
