Univision News will take fact-checking to a whole new level in this last debate. Not only will it continue to do its own thorough investigation of each candidate’s statements in real time to confirm their veracity, but it will also tap into the expertise of a group of invited journalists from Central America, South America and Spain –considered among the best fact-checkers in their countries– who will collaborate with Univision’s “Lie Detector” team in Miami during the debate.
