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.

Brian Noble's first game as coach of Salford brought them a 34-30 victory over Castleford that lifted them off the foot of the table.

Huddersfield won 28-20 at the Catalan Dragons, despite having Luke Robinson sent off for a high tackle. Joe Wardle scored two tries for the Giants.
A depleted St Helens lost at London for the first time in 11 years. They led at half-time, but tries from Tommy Lee and Michael Robertson brought the Broncos a 21-14 win that coach Tony Rea thinks could revive their season.
