Is there anything more pernicious than the "fact checker" label? It literally means absolutely nothing, and yet it commands greater authority and respect than any other designation in many circles. It's fucking insane.
I would support the FCC ruling that major news organizations are not permitted to refer to these services using language that implies they are capable of determining truth/fact/etc.

If you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it fact checked I will, I've got spare time.
