More recently, the mainstream media has come under severe economic threat from online startups. In addition, the rapid spread of misinformation and conspiracy theories via social media is slowly creeping into mainstream media. One solution is for more media staff to be assigned a fact-checking role, as for example <a href="/wiki/The_Washington_Post" title="The Washington Post">The Washington Post</a>. Independent fact-checking organisations have also become prominent, such as <a href="/wiki/PolitiFact" title="PolitiFact">PolitiFact</a>. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Types_of_fact-checking">Types of fact-checking</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Fact-checking&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Types of fact-checking">edit</a>]</div> Ante hoc fact-checking aims to identify errors so that the text can be corrected before dissemination, or perhaps rejected.

Clarke further argued that "The binary idea that scientific assertions are either correct or incorrect has fed into the divisiveness that has characterised the pandemic."<a href="#cite_note-BMJ-100">[100]</a> Several commentators have noted limitations of political post-hoc fact-checking. While interviewing Andrew Hart in 2019 about political fact-checking in the United States, Nima Shirazi and Adam Johnson discuss what they perceive as an unspoken conservative bias framed as neutrality in certain fact-checks, citing <a href="/wiki/Argument_from_authority" title="Argument from authority">argument from authority</a>, "hyper-literal ... scolding [of] people on the left who criticized the assumptions of American imperialism", rebuttals that may not be factual themselves, issues of general <a href="/wiki/Media_bias" title="Media bias">media bias</a>, and "the near ubiquitous refusal to identify patterns, trends, and ... intent in politicians' ... false statements". They further argue that political fact-checking focuses exclusively on <a href="/wiki/Positive_statement" class="mw-redirect" title="Positive statement">describing facts</a> over making <a href="/wiki/Normative_statement" class="mw-redirect" title="Normative statement">moral judgments</a> (ex., the <a href="/wiki/Is%E2%80%93ought_problem" title="Is–ought problem">is–ought problem</a>), assert that it relies on <a href="/wiki/Public_reason" title="Public reason">public reason</a> to attempt to discredit public figures, and question its effectiveness on <a href="/wiki/Conspiracy_theories" class="mw-redirect" title="Conspiracy theories">conspiracy theories</a> or <a href="/wiki/Fascism" title="Fascism">fascism</a>.<a href="#cite_note-108">[108]</a> Likewise, writing in <a href="/wiki/The_Hedgehog_Review" title="The Hedgehog Review">The Hedgehog Review</a> in 2023, Jonathan D. Teubner and Paul W. Gleason assert that fact-checking is ineffective against <a href="/wiki/Propaganda" title="Propaganda">propaganda</a> for at least three reasons: "First, since much of what skillful propagandists say will be true on a literal level, the fact-checker will be unable to refute them. Second, no matter how well-intentioned or convincing, the fact-check will also spread the initial claims further. Third, even if the fact-checker manages to catch a few inaccuracies, the larger picture and suggestion will remain in place, and it is this suggestion that moves minds and hearts, and eventually actions." They also note the very large amount of false information that regularly spreads around the world, overwhelming the hundreds of fact-checking groups; caution that a fact-checker systemically addressing propaganda potentially compromises their objectivity; and argue that even descriptive statements are subjective, leading to conflicting points of view. As a potential step to a solution, the authors suggest the need of a "scientific community" to establish <a href="/wiki/Falsifiability" title="Falsifiability">falsifiable theories</a>, "which in turn makes sense of the facts", noting the difficulty that this step would face in the digital media landscape of the Internet.<a href="#cite_note-109">[109]</a> Social media platforms – <a
