For Poynter, Louis Jacobson reflects on the mission of fact checkers – which is all about holding politicians to account, getting to the heart of the matter, and providing audiences with "a better understanding of often overwhelming news developments from across the globe."

"The challenge is no longer only to correct the public record, but to intervene in the private, communal and relational flows where falsehoods often take hold before they become visible to institutions."
For Poynter, Laura Zommer and Natalia Colombo discuss how journalistic fact-checking could and should evolve in this day and age:

@CiaraNi As a journalist, I need more and more time only for #factChecking and I find myself no longer believing anything at the first glance unless I can see verifiable original sources. I only follow real photographers, no accounts showing photos that are not their own.
Sometimes, the AI crap is so hard that I react, like that fake about #snails: https://steady.page/en/naturematchcuts/posts/28951404-a41f-4215-ab89-bc35dbc41233What really gets to me is that this #fakes keep circulating, with loads of likes and shares, and they’re right at the top of

Poynter: Fact-checking has to go where misinformation actually spreads. “In this environment, fact-checking remains indispensable, but its relevance can no longer be measured solely by the publication of articles.

Не верящий в динозавров Игорь Ашманов и отрицающий эпилепсию Василий Генералов приняты в Академию ВРАЛ
22 марта в Петербурге вручали премию за наибольший вклад в распространение лженауки в минувшем году. Звания «Почётного Академика ВРАЛ – 2025» удостоился известный IT-специалист и предприниматель, к.т.н. Игорь Ашманов.
Жюри, состоящее из ученых, присудило Игорю премию за публичные высказывания, в которых бизнесмен отрицает биологическую эволюцию, заявляет, что не верит в самопроизвольное развитие языков и «в динозавров». Победитель, по правилам премии, награждается призом — статуэткой «Грустный рептилоид». Кроме того, в финал премии вышли математик, член-корреспондент РАН Алексей Савватеев, известный выступлениями в поддержку креационизма и гомеопатии, и дизайнер Артемий Лебедев, отрицающий глобальное потепление и заявляющий, что смертность от СПИДа «это вообще ни о чем». В народном голосовании большинство голосов досталось Алексею Савватееву.
Член жюри, Академик РАН Евгений Александров выразил озабоченность тем, что лженаука проникает внутрь РАН — «престиж Академии наук важен, потому что люди доверяют ей».
«Почётным Академиком АПЧХИ» — главным распространителем лженауки в области медицины жюри из медиков признало д.м.н., невролога Василия Генералова, отрицающего эпилепсию как диагноз, продвигающего лечение аутизма у детей методами с недоказанной эффективностью и пугающего аудиторию последствиями прививок. Победитель удостоился оздоровительного приза — «Золотой кофейной клизмы». Членом-корреспондентом АПЧХИ выбрали д.м.н., хирурга Владислава Шафалинова, связывающего рост числа онкологических заболеваний с вакцинацией и электромагнитным излучением, предлагающего лечить рак «ощелачивающей терапией» и другими сомнительными методами. Врач, д.м.н. Сергей Бубновский, призывающий лечить широкий спектр заболеваний исключительно гимнастикой, не получил ни одного голоса жюри и поэтому в Академию АПЧХИ принят не был. «Приз зрительских симпатий» достался Владиславу Шафалинову.
Руководитель оргкомитета премии ВРАЛ научный журналист Александр Соколов выразил удивление по поводу того, что в финале медицинской премии впервые оказалось 3 доктора наук и задался вопросом: «Неужели ученая степень в области медицины значит так мало?» Ведущая премии, врач к.м.н. Ольга Жоголева выразила надежду, что сейчас, когда научно обоснованная медицина набирает обороты, есть шанс, что ситуация изменится к лучшему.
В рамках мероприятия состоялись выступления биолога, к.б.н. Ильи Удалова на тему «Так в чём Дарвин не прав?» и аллерголога, к.м.н. Ольги Жоголевой «Правда о БАДах».
Организатор премии — научно-просветительский портал Антропогенез.ру и проект «Ученые Против Мифов».
Среди членов жюри: академик РАН, д.ф.-м.н. Евгений Александров, д.г.н. Алексей Екайкин, д.х.н.Игорь Дмитриев, д.г.н. Ольга Соломина, д.ф.-м.н. Эмиль Ахмедов, д.г.н. Елена Сухачева, д.б.н. Тамара Кузнецова, д.и.н. Кирилл Назаренко, д.м.н. Юрий Сиволап, д.м.н. Сергей Поликарпов, к.м.н. Юлия Зинченко, к.м.н. Анна Дроганова, к.м.н. Игнат Рудченко и др.
Полный состав жюри
ВРАЛ — Вруническая Академия Лженаук, АПЧХИ — Академия Превентивной ЧакроХирургии.
Премия «Почётный Академик ВРАЛ» присуждается с 2016 года. По словам организаторов, цель премии — в шутливой форме заявить о проблеме лженауки и привлечь внимание общественности к важности борьбы с заблуждениями.

"On Thursday, Meta’s Oversight Board, a quasi-independent body that reviews the social media giant’s moderation practices, ruled that “Community Notes” are not a proper substitute for its fact-checking program.
In a new “policy advisory opinion,” the Board expressed concerns about how effective Community Notes would be in a litany of circumstances, “including in repressive human rights regimes, in particular electoral contexts and in ongoing crisis and conflict situations.” Overall, the Board warned that expanding Community Notes outside the U.S. could “pose significant human rights risks and contribute to tangible harms that Meta has a responsibility to avoid or remedy.”
In January 2025, Meta announced it was getting rid of its fact-checking program in the U.S. Launched a decade ago, the program relied on a network of third-party fact-checkers to verify content and flag disinformation. These partnerships with news and civil society organizations have been essential to the platform’s moderation practices on Meta, Instagram, and Threads."
