Your New Role...

CNN Fact Check is a quality-control function responsible for reviewing content to ensure that CNN's journalism meets the highest standards of accuracy and fact-based reporting. The team reviews dozens of pieces each week across both linear television and digital platforms, spanning everything from daily reporter packages and digital articles to complex, in-depth enterprise and investigative reporting.

Fact Check researchers play a critical role in the editorial approval process prior to broadcast and publication. They assess content for factual accuracy and work closely with editorial teams to strengthen reporting through additional background, sourcing, and context where needed.

In addition to daily content review, researchers contribute to special projects that require deeper, more comprehensive research. The role operates within a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment, requiring the ability to efficiently leverage a wide range of research tools and resources.

The Fact Check team is an integral part of CNN's editorial workflow, helping ensure that reporting across all platforms is accurate, storytelling is strong, and content is vetted and approved in a timely and responsible manner.
