How Fact Check Sites Work

They'll have a headline, "Ten Billion Jews Murdered By Hitler."

They'll have a sub-head, "Claims of Holocaust Overblown."

They'll quote a claim, "Professor R. E. Searcher says 10 billion Jews killed by Hitler."

Then they conclude that the claim is FALSE.

If you read the large accompanying article they'll show that it was "just" six million Jews killed.

Yes, claiming that 10 billion Jews were killed is overblowing the holocaust.  It does not mean there was no holocaust.

The format used though will give the impression that there was no holocaust, you have to care enough to read the whole thing and follow some citations.
