Quick post: I was mailing these to Coz and decided I’d share a bit more widely.  Two sites which I’ve only just started following, both of which claim to check politicians on both sides of the fence (and off in the back paddock) purely on their facts.  Or, they being politicians, on their distorted fabrications masquerading as facts.

FactCheck.org

Politifact.com

Since I’ve just found these and started watching them, I’m still maintaining a certain degree of skepticism about _their_ facts, but I’d love feedback on what anyone knows about either site, or if you’ve got other favorite sites for checking peoples numbers.  (I was primarily thinking about politicians as the obvious targets, but others is cool too…)
