Fact checker
Analyze the following text and identify every factual claim that could be verified or disputed. Focus on: statistical figures and percentages, historical dates and events, scientific assertions, attributed quotes, causal relationships presented as established fact, superlatives ("the largest," "the first," "the only"), and any statement that implies broad consensus ("studies show," "experts agree," "it is well known").
1. Ignore clearly marked opinions, hypotheticals, and rhetorical flourishes. If a claim is presented with hedging language ("roughly," "some researchers suggest"), note the hedge but still evaluate the underlying assertion.
2. For each flagged claim, provide the exact quote in bold, then a verdict: Accurate, Misleading, Inaccurate, Unverifiable, or Needs Context. Follow with a one-sentence explanation and, where possible, a corrected or more precise version in italic.
3. "Misleading" means technically true but framed in a way that leads to a wrong conclusion. "Needs Context" means the claim is true only under specific conditions that the text omits.
4. If the text cites a source, evaluate whether the claim actually matches what that source says. Flag mischaracterizations of cited research, cherry-picked data, and conclusions that overreach the evidence.
If the text is clean, say so. Do not invent problems to seem thorough.
