Clinton wants debate moderator to 'fact-check' the candidates
By Rick Moran
Hillary Clinton and her aides are pressing moderator Lester Holt to "fact-
check" Donald Trump during the debate tonight. Debate moderators cannot "
close their ears to Donald Trump's lies; it will extend an unfair bias to
Donald Trump," Clinton's press secretary said. The Clinton camp claims that
it will be like giving Trump more time if Hillary has to do her own fact-
checking.

Assertion: F-22 production uses a shim line and national spreading of

Most voters believe news organizations play favorites when it comes to fact-

Clinton.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that just

每卖出的一份Mutual Fund，都需要记录某推销员，某月某日，卖出了某个Mutual Fund

这一条条记录就叫 row, record or transaction. 如果你买了三个不同的Mutual Fund

Obama，Fact check还在说这是Obama的功劳，Fact在哪里？
Fact应该是数据而不是推论。网上很多似是而非的推论，也许用了一些正确的数据，但
得出错误的推论，还就把这些推论称为Fact，真是胡扯。打个比方：最近看到一个Fact
check，说El Paso的Crime降低跟修墙无关。文章说犯罪率从1993年开始总趋势在下降
，因此跟修墙无关。但事实上，2006,2007年全国平均犯罪率是在下降，而El Paso是在
上升，El Paso在2008年开始建墙，结果从2008年犯罪率又开始下降。如果没有其他证
据说明其他因素导致了犯罪率下降，直观上讲，建墙有效啊。数字是Fact，但推论不一

The U.S. faces the possibility of another recession — the third in 11 years
— if President Obama and Congress cannot find a way to avoid the so-called

cuts scheduled to take effect, beginning Jan. 1, would push the
unemployment rate back above 9 percent, according to the Congressional

容诠释、客观发生/未发生的。比如说，我说我看到房子里有鬼走来走去，我说的是

所以你举例说法庭宣誓时说的 the truth, the whole truth, nothing but the truth
，其实与 这楼的主题 fact 无关。Fact 是客观的，不容个人诠释的，所以只有真假，
没有 alternative。

It is both. But that answer requires looking more deeply at the meanings of

In everyday usage, "theory" often refers to a hunch or a speculation. When
people say, "I have a theory about why that happened," they are often
drawing a conclusion based on fragmentary or inconclusive evidence.

denormlize解决的是reporting的问题，在关系数据库出现之前，大家把数据做成
