I won't say the BS word anymore. But for those who wish they knew the 'facts' behind UK political [rhetoric](http://www.perfect.co.uk/2005/04/channel-4-keep-a-rein-on-the-rhetoric?ref=opendemocracy.net), Channel 4 has started a new [FactCheck](http://www.channel4.com/news/factcheck/?ref=opendemocracy.net) website, based on the American site of the same name. (via [perfect.co.uk](http://www.perfect.co.uk/2005/04/channel-4-keep-a-rein-on-the-rhetoric?ref=opendemocracy.net))

(You may remember the 2004 television debate between Dick Cheney and John Edwards where Cheney referred viewers to FactCheck.com instead of .org and the [domain name owners diverted](http://www.factcheck.com/factcheck.html?ref=opendemocracy.net) people to George Soros' anti-Bush rant instead.)
