Before we actually fact checked our candidates and our research, we practiced doing so with a statement they said from a debate.

After getting the gist of how to fact check, we did the same to the information that Trump has said. My peers all did the same but either on Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, Jill Stein, or Gary Johnson.
Since I was in the economy group, my peers and I compiled our fact checks into one document which is to the right. It covered the topics of military spending, government spending, jobs, income, tax plans, and trade agreements. |

After we gathered our all of our fact checks and research together we created a storyboard where we would plan out our video. This helped us figure out how our video would turn out piece by piece which helped us stay organized.

Truth Campaign Ad
Our objective was to just make it clear that not everything our politicians say is true and we shouldn't just take their word for it. Although not everything they say is false, creating the habit of making sure they are telling the truth would benefit our society. Doing our own research to hold them accountable for what they say is important. (right) |
