    You just went on a journalism message board and told us something shouldn’t be fact checked.

    I refuse to believe you’re a real person.

    Something like that AOC video really needs the "If your mother says she loves you, check it out" standard applied to it?

    Yes. An elected official claimed something that can be reported out. Check it before you put it on the air or on your page.

    Next question.

    So all these "journalists " who say she's lying are just doing what journalists are supposed to do?

    The standard is quite rigorous for a reason, and the mother phrase was quite intentionally chosen as the example. The problem isn't that she was fact-checked. It's that people made shit up and called it a fact-check.

    Forget AOC. We'll just start fact-checking all your ridiculous stories.
