      Storyful is a really cool site that works pretty much solely on providing fact checking for journalists and editors. It also gives a lot of advice about making online content.
    • Jordan Kranse
       
      Is Twitter Wrong focuses on disproving news and rumors from Twitter. Some of what they fact check isn't very official, but there are several good verifications.
    • Jordan Kranse
       
      Keepr compiles similar news from different sources. It makes looking up a certain event in the news really easy.
  •  
    This website compiles useful fact checking websites, like Fact Checker. I personally find the Is Twitter Wrong website to be interesting and informative.
