FACT CHECKING SEARCH RESULTS

1 . A system comprising:

one or more processors;

one or more storage media storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause:

performing a search including searching for an inputted search string in search sources and returning search results grouped into relevance groups according to relevance;

fact checking the search by comparing each of the search results with source information to determine a factual accuracy of each of the search results, wherein fact checking affects the search results within a relevance group but does not cause a search result to be removed from the relevance group;

providing a combined result of the search and the fact checking.

2 . A method comprising:

parsing web pages into fact checkable portions and comparing the fact checkable portions with source information to determine a factual accuracy of each of the web pages;

while performing a search, retrieving search results, wherein the search results comprise the fact checked web pages; and

causing the search results to be displayed based on the factual accuracy of each of the web pages;

wherein the method is performed by one or more computing devices.

3 . A system comprising:

one or more processors;

one or more storage media storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause:

receiving a search string to perform a search;

performing the search using the search string, the search including searching for the search string in one or more search sources;

obtaining search results associated with the search string based on the search;

automatically fact checking the search results by comparing each of the search results with source information from one or more sources to determine a factual accuracy of each of the search results and generating fact checking results based on the factual accuracy determined for the search results;

providing a combined result for the search string, wherein the combined result includes at least a portion of each of the search results and the fact checking results.

4 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the search results are grouped into relevance groups according to relevance.

5 . The system of claim 4 , wherein fact checking affects the search results within a relevance group but does not cause a search result to be removed from the relevance group.

6 . The system of claim 3 , wherein fact checking includes processing each of the search results by parsing each result of the search results.

7 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the combined result includes less accurate search results presented lower than more accurate search results.

8 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the combined result includes a search result without factual inaccuracies on top of a list of the search results.

9 . The system of claim 3 , wherein fact checking includes changing a position of a search result in a list of the search results if the search result has a number of factual inaccuracies above a threshold.

10 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the search and the fact checking are equally weighted.

11 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the search has a higher weighting than the fact checking.

12 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the search has a lower weighting than the fact checking.

13 . The system of claim 3 , wherein fact checking comprises determining bias of a search result.

14 . The system of claim 3 , wherein each source of the source information includes a reliability rating, wherein higher rated sources are used before lower rated sources, and sources below a threshold are not used.

15 . The system of claim 3 , further comprising automatically sending the combined result to a second device.

16 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the source information is ranked by popularity, and fact checking utilizes a most popular source information first and less popular source information in a descending order.

17 . The system of claim 3 , wherein fact checking is performed using cloud computing.
