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.

We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Barnsley forward Ricardo Vaz Te is poised for a move to npower Championship rivals West Ham.
Vaz Te, who was signed on a free transfer from Hibernian in the summer, has been a revelation at Oakwell this season, scoring 12 goals in 24 appearances from a wide position.
The Lisbon-born forward penned a one-year deal with the Tykes and was reported to have rejected a new deal earlier this month.
His form and contractual situation has attracted the attention of Hammers boss Sam Allardyce, who brought the 25-year-old to England in 2003 while at Bolton, and Barnsley confirmed this morning that they have given the two parties permission to discuss a deal after an undisclosed fee was agreed.
Allardyce hinted at a deal for a forward yesterday, saying: "Hopefully we'll secure one player to add to the squad. If I can bring someone in on the front line then great."
