, it’s time to get festive.
Facts took a bit of a beating in 2020. Let’s turn the page and celebrate the truth! United Facts of America, brought to you by PolitiFact and the Poynter Institute, is a four-day festival of fact-checking featuring some of the most important voices in media, health care, politics and technology.Â
As a Poynter supporter, we want to make sure you have the absolute best experience. Here’s how:
Join PolitiFact and special guest Brian Stelter for the VIP happy hour on May 10. You’ll be privy to a candid conversation about fact-checking between PolitiFact editor-in-chief Angie Holan and Brian Stelter, anchor of CNN’s "Reliable Sources," and the chief media correspondent for CNN Worldwide. Then you’ll break out into smaller groups to ask PolitiFact fact-checkers about their wackiest fact-checks, most random rabbit holes and what it’s really like to work as a fact-checker in 2021.Â
Tune in live to hear our keynote speakers, including Dr. Anthony Fauci on May 11 at 11:30 a.m. Eastern time. PolitiFact managing editor Katie Sanders will interview the renowned director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases about COVID-19 and vaccine misinformation. Â
