[@nikthefix8918]

Indeed. But for James to suggest that "How to fact check" is to Google Reuters (I know it was just an example) is possibly foolhardy. There are 2 obvious ways that could go wrong. Surely the only reasonable way to fact check is to query every possible source through every possible search provider, collate the output and take a mode average. Sounds like a lot of work if you want to be thorough and of course would inevitably involve looking at The Daily Mail if you wanted a valid data set. And after all that, your conclusions could still be wrong. It seems we live in a world where everyone values Truth yet few are convinced that they are getting it.
