出于对信息真实性的社会关切，世界各地出现了事实核查联盟，以揭穿选举中的政治虚假信息。因此，这项研究将拉丁美洲背景纳入事实核查新闻研究，作为打击政治虚假信息的新闻实践。通过分析RedCheq，第一个事实核查新闻联盟在选举区域范围内由Albertacheck领导，11个深入的采访进行了识别区域事实检查员的看法，关于这种新闻实践的有用性，其成就，以及将事实核查纳入区域媒体生态系统的关键方面。研究结果表明，RedCheq实现了打击虚假信息的目标，事实核查成为区域媒体的转型杠杆。区域记者认为，事实核查是恢复区域媒体公信力和社会信任的一个因素，因为这种新闻实践的认识论忽视了权力压力和官方叙述的传播。最后，这项研究强调了事实核查新闻如何在沉默和两极分化的环境中促进民主质量和公民赋权。此外，会议还讨论了需要将事实核查新闻报道的覆盖面扩大到新的地理区域，并提高记者的专业能力和培训，从而使他们能够根据区域记者的要求使用核查工具。
Fact-checking alliances emerged worldwide to debunk political disinformation in electoral contexts because of social concerns related to information authenticity. This study, thus, included the Latin American context in fact-checking journalism studies as a journalistic practice to fight political disinformation. Through analyzing RedCheq, the first fact-checking journalism alliance in an electoral regional context led by Colombiacheck, 11 in-depth interviews were conducted to identify the perceptions of regional fact-checkers regarding the usefulness of this journalistic practice, its achievements, and the key aspects for incorporating fact-checking into the regional media ecosystem. The study results revealed that RedCheq achieved the goal of fighting disinformation, and that fact-checking developed as transformational leverage for the regional media. Regional journalists perceived fact-checking as an element that restores credibility and social trust in regional media as the epistemology of this journalistic practice neglects the power pressure and dissemination of official narratives. Finally, this study highlighted how fact-checking journalism contributes to the democratic quality and civic empowerment in silenced and polarized environments. In addition, it discussed the need to expand fact-checking journalism’s coverage to new geographical areas and improve journalists’ professional competencies and training, thereby enabling them to function as using verification tools based on regional journalists’ requirements.
