Teyit

teyit.org is an independent verification platform based in Turkey. At a time when the trust in media is at all-time low, our main aims are to prevent false information from spreading online, help media consumers develop their media literacy skills, and develop methods to promote critical thinking. We’ve been publishing analyses on teyit.org in both Turkish and English languages on suspicious content especially in times of crisis since our launch on October 26, 2016. We also give verification workshops and contribute to publications aiming at raising awareness about the importance of public access to accurate information. teyit.org is a signatory to the International Fact-Checking Network’s Code of Principles and one of the partners of First Draft News. In May 2018, Facebook launched its third-party fact-checking program in Turkey and chose to partner with teyit.org in its war against misinformation and fake news. Source
