The Conversation has its own fact checking service now, with a kind of 'peer review' process of each fact check article. Very interesting. Really informative actually! theconversation.com/au/factcheck

I agree these services shouldn't be necessary, they have been going in the US for a while, and I think are a reflection of people's frustration with journalists. In a related note, (it is now July 21), the media are picking up much more on Abbots various 'musings', this week he didn't get away with the invisible gas comments. Later in the week there was however no scrutiny of the Libs comments re the impact of the change to company car tax treatment.

They shouldn't be needed, but I think there is no avoiding it. Once a few examples of journalistic failure ooze out you start wondering what else is dodgy.
