BBC Verify

Last updated

BBC Verify is a service introduced by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) in 2023. [1] According to the BBC "BBC Verify is a specialist team of journalists using open-source intelligence (OSINT), satellite imagery, data analysis and forensic techniques. They fact-check information, verify video, counter disinformation, and analyse data to separate fact from fake, and to bring clarity on complex issues." BBC Verify says that it "pulls back the curtain" to show not only news, but to verify how it has come to be known. [2]

The original BBC Verify Web site has individual entries for many stories. In 2025 BBC Verify Live was added, a single page on the BBC News home page and on the BBC app for a day with verification of many of the day's news stories added cumulatively as available. [2]
