The Tampa Bay Times - Poynter home of fact-checking pioneer, PolitiFact, is expanding its local coverage in January 2024. Good news, especially here 'on the home front', as GreenPolicy360's global network originates in Tampa Bay.

GreenPolicy360 has been following PolitiFact from its initial beginnings (launched in 2007) and they have changed the national and international news business as their original idea and model of a fact-checking news operation has grown into industry-wide fact checking around the world. It is evident that the need for focus on facts and evidence in these times of dis- and mis-information is an essential contribution by a free press and online sources to enable accurate judgment, decision-making and a successful democracy.

The online world is especially convoluted these days...
