After I wrote that email to PolitiFact, they had a self-congratulatory third anniversary article where PF (Bill Adair) decided for some unknown reason to do a little number crunching. Well, maybe he did it when they hit two years or on their first anniversary, so I should just stop speculating.
And in reading my email to them, I did not send them my spreadsheet, nor did I say anything about the percentage of each “Ruling” category. Although I had done that right from the beginning, because it just seemed logical. Here is how my numbers compared to theirs. Apparently, the better-known and more rated politicians and pundits are a little more honest than organizations and emails, because the most noticeable percentage variances are between the True and False/Pants on Fire categories.
