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 via Social Media: Donald Trump Forgot To Swear In Tulsi Gabbard.
Newsweek rating: False (Claims that Trump forgot to swear Tulsi Gabbard in were based on inaccurate news reports that failed to include the full coverage of the event.) Fact Check: Did Donald Trump forget to swear in Tulsi Gabbard? |
| FALSE | Claim via Social Media: Antarctica’s perimeter is larger than Earth’s circumference which should not be possible, proving Antarctica is an ice wall and we live on a flat Earth.
Science Feedback rating: Incorrect (The Earth is not flat because satellite imagery, physics, and precise measurements confirm its spherical shape, as seen in long-distance travel, gravity, and astronomical observations. Accurate calculations of Antarctica’s perimeter, along with satellite imagery, historical records, and direct exploration, prove it is a continent rather than an “ice wall,” further debunking flat Earth claims.) |
| BLATANT LIE |
Claim via Social Media: Video captioned “BOO THE BASTARD” authentically shows Donald Trump being booed at the 2025 Super Bowl

| FALSE | (International: Germany): New polls says Germans think Trump biggest threat to world peace
Lead Stories rating: False (2019 Poll) |
