An independent 2013 analysis from the nonpartisan Center for Media and Public Affairs at George Mason University showed results consistent with the findings of the aforementioned 2011 study, concluding that PolitiFact was three times as likely to rank statements from Republicans as "Pants on Fire," and twice as likely to rank statements from Democrats as "Entirely True."

This finding simply reflects the reality.....even worse now than it was then.....that Republicans spread disinformation and untruths far more frequently than Democrats do, and their untruths tend to stray further from the truth.
