Lead Stories vs PolitiFact

Who’s behind each, what their homepages track, what they cost and how often their policies changed, measured the same way for both. By what they offer, they’re very close.

Lead Stories

American fact-checking website that publishes articles debunking viral claims, fake images and misinformation circulating on social media; its fact checks are used by Meta and ByteDance for content moderation.

PolitiFact

PolitiFact publishes fact-checks of statements by U.S. politicians, candidates, pundits and viral social media posts, rating each claim on its Truth-O-Meter scale from True to Pants on Fire.
