CNN’s Daniel Dale hasn’t given up on fact-checking; in fact, he’s been busy

In today’s era of increasing disinformation, numerous organizations and individuals, including the AP, Reuters, PolitiFact, Glenn Kessler of the Washington Post, and CNN’s Daniel Dale, are dedicated to the “fact-checking” business.

These entities aim to ensure accuracy and hold powerful figures accountable. This becomes challenging, especially when dealing with conflicting narratives, like the differing accounts related to how President Joe Biden’s son died and whether Joe Biden discussed business with his son during overseas transactions.

Critics suggest that while the president may have been involved in such discussions, fact-checkers might downplay such interactions as merely casual conversations.

Commentator Tim Graham has observed that while CNN’s Dale remains active in fact-checking, he appears to be discerning about the subjects of his evaluations.

Seven fact-check articles from CNN's Daniel Dale since July 19.

FOUR on Trump
THREE on RFK Jr.

And that's it. https://t.co/3v5cmdV5JL

That's because – and I've heard them say this on their networks – that they automatically believe things about the current regime merely because "Biden said so".

Astonishing.
