Along with her staff, Fowler, the editor-in-chief of McCluer’s newspaper, focused on the stories they could tell — about Parents for Peace, a group that set up a makeshift school when the Ferguson-Florissant schools were delayed, about students who went to the protests, about what it meant to wait for school to start. </p> <p>#Ferguson slants across McCluer North’s yearbook’s cover, too.

Glenn Kessler <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150617044835/http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/fact-checker/wp/2014/11/19/global-factcheckathon-g20-summit-fact-checked-by-9-fact-checking-organizations/">wrote about the results in The Washington Post</a>. I coordinated this first factcheckathon with Cristina Tardàguila from O Globo and took home three important lessons.</p> <ol> <li><strong>Global fact-checking experiments can yield useful results for comparative politics</strong><br/> Our fact-checking network caught three of the eight world leaders we were monitoring saying essentially the same thing: Ahmet Davutoglu of Turkey, Barack Obama of the USA and Matteo Renzi of Italy all said something along the lines of “large amounts of jobs were created under my government” – and then proceeded to inflate their records. What was interesting was not so much that politicians chose to dabble with figures, but that they did so in such a similar manner.</li></ol> <a
