UPDATE 3:35 p.m.: The bug has been fixed. Everything should be back to normal (although it would be nice if the Fact Checks were a stream of green “True”). Sorry for about that!

I wanted to let everyone know that some changes we rolled out to the site this afternoon seem to have caused all fact checks to appear as “True” for some browsers. Namely, Internet Explorer and Firefox. Safari seems fine.

While we’d love it if all our leaders were 100 percent truthful in their claims, this is obviously a bug. We’re working on it right now and I’ll let you know when it’s fixed.

A special thanks to John Kawamoto for reporting this bug!

Thanks for your patience.
