Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

Your support makes all the difference.Chelsea captain John Terry's long goodbye began with a goalless draw at Watford.
The Premier League champions maintain Terry could yet still be offered a contract extension, despite his claim after last Sunday's FA Cup win at MK Dons that there will be no 19th season and no fairytale ending.
The likelihood Chelsea will be playing European football next term receded further at Vicarage Road, despite Guus Hiddink extending his unbeaten run in caretaker charge to nine matches.
Five of Hiddink's seven Premier League games have been draws, including against Watford on Boxing Day, leaving the Blues 15 points adrift of fourth-placed Arsenal.
Once again the Hornets tested Chelsea, but the visitors were denied victory when Diego Costa's 88th-minute header was kept out by Heurelho Gomes.
The visiting supporters made their feelings clear by repeatedly singing about captain Terry, on his 697th appearance, but their thoughts have fallen on deaf ears before.
Vocal supporter backing did little for Jose Mourinho, whose second spell came to an end in December.
But Terry can expect the fans to make their feelings clear to the club's hierarchy and owner Roman Abramovich in Sunday's clash with Manchester United at Stamford Bridge.
