State of the Union fact checks

More lies

A lot of fact checks were done after the speech which means Trump was able to lie without being contradicted in real time. To be fair, Trump lies so much, it would be hard for the media to keep up.

CBS offered a brief "reality check" of SOTU, but didn't address Trump's most egregious misstatements. Have you seen other fact-checking on air? pic.twitter.com/LYMTfRYm6z

Trump doesn’t talk about the people killed in mass shootings.

And now @MSNBC is queuing up a fact-check, though it's now pretty late in the game. I'd much prefer this stuff before all the blather. CNN now doing a second check too.
