Oštro: Analyzing media content published in Slovene media

Analyzing media content published in Slovene media, also fact-checking statements of politicians and officials and other who enjoy influence and power in society, as well as posts on social media, forums, blogs.

The evaluation of media content is based on the verification of publications, claims, statements and other statements, and the search for evidence that can confirm or refute what has been published.

Fact-checking analysis is based on the use of credible and verifiable sources. We provide all statements and findings with evidence in the form of documents, images, files or with links to credible sources of information.

All findings that the verification leads us to and that are important for the evaluation of the verified statement are clearly and precisely presented in the analysis. This also applies to cases where the claim turns out to be true.

All information that we find out and add subsequently is clearly marked as an update.

Based on independent verification and analysis, we evaluate each publication according to the type of information. A post can have multiple ratings depending on the number of individual claims. More about the ratings is available here.

When preparing the categorization, we started from the methodology of the non-profit organization EAVI - European Association for Viewers Interests.
