Tim Cavanaugh Talks Fact Checking on HuffPost Live

HuffPostLive with Blue ManHow many facts can a
fact checker check
? 

Are
Americans too dumb
to be trusted with their own news
preferences? 

Is
this type of thing
too disturbing for viewers to see without
media filtration? 

How
about this
? 

Why won’t the unbiased media objectively admit the
demonstrable truth that everything Paul Ryan says is a lie
?

Where’s Pat Moynihan to shed a Jameson-infused Irish tear for
the way our society has
defined fact-checking down
? 

I appeared this afternoon on something called HuffPost Live,
discussing the new fad for freelance fact-checking. Host: Mike
Sacks. Other guests: David Westin, Lorraine Devon Wilke and Zach
Carter.
