Same event
1 Jun 2026Everyone in our line-up who spoke here, each rated by the same rules on their own words. Our model rated this. The BS Index is not compared here because the speakers were scored on different measures (for example, one asked the questions and the other answered them). Compare the measures instead.
Fact or Fluff
1 claims checked against independent sources, chosen by a fixed rule (every material claim (one that supports an argument, a policy or an attack) in the transcripts that count towards a score; in other transcripts, up to 10 claims spread evenly across each; plus any claim an emotional passage relies on). 0 more were found but not checked yet; they do not count.
Quotes leave out filler sounds and repeated words. Words in [square brackets] correct a transcript that misheard or misspelt them. The transcript keeps every word as published.
Not counted
2Procedural claims (the speaker's own dates, petition counts, who said what, background), clear slips of the tongue, and words read out from someone else. They stay on the record and do not count in Accuracy.
