See all of the fact-checks from NYT reporters.

In addition to these fact-checks from NYT reporters, you can also check out fact-checks from Politfact, who used a handy Truth-o-Meter to rank how true the candidates statements were during the first Presidential debate Wednesday night.

Looking for tips on doing your own fact-checking?  Brendan Nyhan and Jason Reifler have pulled together a toolkit for journalists to counter misinformation  for CJR’s Swing State Project. You can also check out a video on C-SPAN of Nyhan discussing how journalists can increase the likelihood that facts will win out.
