Mapping fact-checking resources. A typology based on cross-national insights (France-Greece-Poland)
Résumé
This report maps fact-checking resources and establishes a typology of the latter, depicting
the variety of available tools. The approach is bottom-up: in the frame of a European project
on collaborative fact-checking, students in journalism and communication studies coming from
France, Greece and Poland were asked to list and classify all fact-checking tools that they use
or they are aware of. Findings revealed a common denominator, i.e., the existence of an
overall wide acceptation of the meaning of “fact-checking tool”, which this report has mapped.
However, it also shed light to differences linked to the role of national/cultural contexts.
