Check - A Browser Extension to Help Citizen Journalists Investigate Media Online

Check is a browser extension developed to help citizen journalists investigate media on the internet. With this tool, you can find articles, videos, photos, and other media that need verification. You can ask the media you find on the internet for additional details like date, location, evidence, and additional sources. This way, you’ll have a better understanding of the source of the information, so you can decide if it’s true or not.

With Check you can verify media items online and in real-time with your team. You can also view the media item details and find the sources of the article, video, or photo. After clicking on the Check icon, you can save an item to your team and start investigating right away. It works on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, and other web platforms.
