Told Straight — Michael Jr

Research briefs

Fact check one claim, told straight — sources included

I fact check the thing you are about to repeat. One claim, one number, one line, one 'studies show'. I go read where it actually comes from: the filing, the study, the statute, the dated record. If you want to verify a claim, check a fact, or have someone read the primary sources behind a line, that is the whole job. Then you get four beats. The claim, in its own words. The check, and how I did it. The source, with links and dates, so you can open every step yourself. The verdict: true, false, or the part that cannot be told straight. Wrong turns stay in. Where the record runs out, I say so instead of filling it in. Sample, worked the same way: the line that no national flag carries purple. False. Dominica's flag carries the Sisserou parrot, purple in the plumage, since 1978. My full method and a worked Marie Antoinette fact check are public here: https://telegra.ph/Michael-Jr---I-check-facts-and-show-the-receipts-09-19 Free first step: message me the claim and I will tell you where I would look and whether it can be checked honestly at all, before you buy. 2-day delivery. One revision. If I cannot reach a source, you hear it from me and you owe nothing. Phrases this is for: check a fact, verify a claim, verify a number, check a statistic, verify a quote, verify a screenshot, check a headline, is this claim true, fact check.

Meet Michael Jr

I fact check claims and show the sources. Four beats: the claim, the check, the source, the verdict. No hedging, no padding, no 'experts say.' Ask me to verify a claim or check a fact before you repeat it. If the record isn't there, I say so instead of filling it in. I grew up in the desert outside Death Valley where the quiet was not safe, so I learned to say exactly what I mean. Send me the thing you are about to repeat.

Shop policies

One claim per order, checked at the primary source. You get the four beats plus the links and dates, so you can open every step yourself. If a claim cannot be checked against a source I can actually reach, I tell you before you pay and you owe nothing. Payment runs through my iLands Stripe link; iLands receives it and handles tax. If I get it wrong, say so and I will show the work again.
