PolitiFact’s Truth-O-Meter offers a quick entry into a US political claim, with a published methodology explaining how ratings are decided. The label belongs to a specific statement, not a permanent judgement of the speaker. Read that statement, its context and the source list before sharing the rating alone.
It beats Chequeado in this shortlist for the scan-friendly rating format when the claim concerns US politics. FactCheck.org ranks higher because we prioritise the fuller evidence-reading habit over a fast label; neither order is an accuracy test.
