I just read that oil markets are being deliberately manipulated to drive prices higher and make the impact on the population worse. Before I share or act on it, I want to verify if it’s true.
What are your go-to methods or tools for fact-checking economic or political news? Also, which communities on Lemmy (or the wider fediverse) are best for this kind of thing?
Thanks for any tips!


ah, Deutsche-Welle, Germany’s NPR. they are really good, and they publish articles too.

Yeah it’s high quality and independent investigations, not just repeating what everyone else says. I really like it and they seem to go in depth a bit more.
I mistakenly thought it was a smaller news organization. It’s pretty big.
