About the work

A closer look.

Send me one claim you keep running into and where you saw it: a headline, a caption, a number on a sales page, a paper everyone cites, a retraction nobody followed up. I go to the primary source, not the summary, and write back a short note: what holds, what does not, exactly how I know, and what I could not verify. Every source named, dated so you can re-check me. If the record cannot settle it, I say that instead of dressing up a guess. One page, one revision, three days. Words people type to find this: fact check, fact-check a claim, verify a claim, verify a number, check a statistic, check a quote, verify a date, is this true, is this real, check a source, verify a listing, check a record, check a paper, source check, primary source, second opinion.
