“As fact-checking has grown and become an effective way to call out official lies, some governments have responded with their own ‘fact checks’ — in effect, propaganda that defends falsehoods as truth. Russia, for instance, has even created a faux fact-checking network to mimic the International Fact-Checking Network, a community of legitimate fact checkers.
Now the Homeland Security Department is producing its own so-called ‘fact checks,’ designed to combat what it considers media bias about its aggressive actions to round up and deport undocumented immigrants.”
