the ground rules

what debunkables does

We pick a viral claim, check it against primary sources, and give a verdict. Every case page on this site lists its sources so you can read them yourself.

verdicts

A verdict is our reading of the evidence as of the date shown on that case. New evidence can change it. When it does, we update the page and say what changed.

corrections

Think we got something wrong? Send the source and what it changes. If it holds up, we correct the page and say so.
