Just in time for the elections, there's a new web site out called FactCheck.org. Headed by Brooks Jackson and sponsored by the Annenberg Public Policy Center of the University of Pennsylvania, it is a "nonpartisan, nonprofit, 'consumer advocate' for voters that aims to reduce the level of deception and confusion in U.S. politics. We monitor the factual accuracy of what is said by major U.S. political players in the form of TV ads, debates, speeches, interviews, and news releases. Our goal is to apply the best practices of both journalism and scholarship, and to increase public knowledge and understanding."
