Media Bias Fact Check selects and publishes fact checks from around the world. We only utilize fact-checkers that are either a signatory of the International Fact-Checking Network (IFCN) or have been verified as credible by MBFC. Further, we review each fact check for accuracy before publishing. We fact-check the fact-checkers and let you know their bias. When appropriate, we explain the rating and/or offer our own rating if we disagree with the fact-checker. (D. Van Zandt)
Claim Codes: Red = Fact Check on a Right Claim, Blue = Fact Check on a Left Claim, Black = Not Political/Conspiracy/Pseudoscience/Other
Fact Checker bias rating Codes: Red = Right-Leaning, Green = Least Biased, Blue = Left-Leaning, Black = Unrated by MBFC
| TRUE | Claim by Kamala Harris (D): Black women in the U.S. are “three to four times more likely to die in connection with childbirth than other women.”
Politifact rating: True (The latest data shows that Black women in the U.S. have a maternal mortality rate of 49.5 for every 100,000 live births — nearly three times higher than their non-Hispanic white counterparts.) Kamala Harris is right: Black women in the US have the highest maternal mortality rate |
| BLATANT LIE |
Claim by The People’s Voice: The LAPD said Matthew Perry was murdered.
USA Today rating: False (Made-up nonsense) |
| FALSE | Claim via Social Media: Project 2025 eliminates overtime pay.
KGW rating: False (Project 2025 does not call for eliminating overtime pay. Instead, it does advocate for overtime pay adjustments and calls on Congress to amend the federal overtime rules. Critics say the proposed recommendations could potentially roll back worker protections and make it easier for companies to avoid paying as much money in overtime wages. Still, the document’s language does not suggest the elimination of overtime.) |
| FALSE | (International: Philippines): To appease China, the Philippines will return a missile system deployed by the US last April as part of military drills between Filipino and US troops.
Rappler rating: False FACT CHECK: PH not returning US missile system just to ‘appease China’ |

This update from MBFC highlights the value of transparency in the fact-checking process. By pulling from IFCN-verified sources and adding their own bias ratings, they help readers understand not just whether a claim is true, but also the political or ideological lens through which it’s being evaluated. The extra step of “fact-checking the fact-checkers” reinforces accountability and strengthens trust, something especially important in an environment where misinformation spreads easily.Visit us https://www.coatings.com.pa/
Media Bias Fact Check does solid work by verifying fact-checkers before publishing anything.
I like that they show both the claim bias and the fact-checker’s own bias — it keeps things transparent.
It’s refreshing to see a platform that fact-checks the fact-checkers instead of blindly trusting them.
