>Examples of Fact-Checker Errors

One needs to consult with the professional fact-checkers...and
understand how fact-checking works.


That said, professional fact-checking organizations like Snopes,
Politifact, and FactCheck.org are extremely valuable (as are science
and skepticism websites that often play the role of fact-checker);
however, these sources are valuable not because they are
authoritative, but rather precisely because they are transparent and
cite their sources. I'd never suggest that someone should blindly
believe a source like Snopes, but the break-down of why and how they
came to their conclusion and what sources they used is incredibly
useful. You don't have to blindly believe fact-checkers because you
can look at their sources and verify what they are saying! You can
also cross-check multiple fact-checkers to see if they are in
agreement or if one has uncovered information that the others missed.
