Here s the spreadsheet he sent:
So what happened? Nothing! Kertscher and PolitiFact never posted a ruling that the MRC chart was acceptably truthful. It might have helped PolitiFact to show good faith after this exchange of facts. I contacted Kertscher for comment, and Kertscher said he forwarded to PolitiFact editor Angie Drobnic Holan. There has been no comment sent back.
Instead of ruling on our chart, on Monday, Kertscher posted a fact check that warned about a Facebook claim that the Bidens wanted to remove gender terms.

McNerney said he isn’t expecting a response to the letters before March 8, but said the subcommittee might ask to talk to the cable providers as well as representatives from Fox News, Newsmax and OANN.
Lawmakers on Wednesday will hear from media experts such as journalist Soledad O’Brien, host of the Hearst Television political magazine program “Matter of Fact with Soledad O’Brien” and also formerly of CNN, MSNBC and NBC, and other outlets; Emily Bell, director of The Tow Center for Digital Media at Columbia University; Kristin Urquiza, the co-founder of the group Marked By COVID; and Jonathan Turley, professor at the George Washington University Law School, who is also an opinion contributor to The Hill.
CNN host Brian Stelter asked a big question on his Sunday show. What s the future of fact-checking now that Trump is out of office? He proclaimed it was fraught with complexity, and allegations of bias and shouts of false equivalence.
This is not complex. In 2016, a Rasmussen poll found that only 29 percent of the public trusted the media s fact-checking of presidential candidates. There s not just allegations of bias but easy and daily confirmation of bias.
Stelter tried to insist on behalf of his network that the fact-checking focus is now on President Joe Biden. CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale explained, (I)t s basically more like a smattering of falsehood than the daily avalanche we got from Trump, but he s not perfect. Dale has tried to demonstrate that he s checking Biden, issuing an online report on 40 of Biden s statements from his first month in office.
