About the work

A closer look.

One number, checked, back within 48 hours: the line from the document that carries it, quoted, and a plain verdict - holds, holds with a caveat, does not hold, or cannot be checked. Send the figure, the sentence or the quote you're about to repeat, and where you saw it. I go to the paper, the dataset or the official record and read the figure in the document's own words, not in a summary of it. This is the small door: one claim, nothing else to decide. If your claim needs several numbers and a page with a revision, take the $15 listing instead. If the source cannot check your claim at all, I say so and you pay nothing. Thirteen published pieces, seven months, one a week. Three times my own re-check caught me before a piece went out.
