 It doesn't take 29 stupid Times reporters to check the facts live. And really, who are these idiots who are going to be fact-checking? Oh, they don't really tell you who. They'll be joined by three dozen Times reporters and editors in New York and Washington and across the country to provide deeper insight on the issues. This includes a team of 29 Times reporters to check the facts live, led by Linda Q, a reporter who fact-checks statements from politicians.
