As the first fact-checking media outlet in the region of Western Balkans, Istinomer was established to provide the audience with an effective fact-checking mechanism for the assessment of politicians' and public officials' accountability based on what they are saying and promising to their constituents and how do they actually perform. Istinomer established a comprehensive, precise and transparent methodology used to evaluate politicians' and public officials' claims in three categories: truthfulness, consistency and fulfilment of promises. It uses uniform standards and methodology for each fact-check, relying on verifiable facts only, in order to ensure the highest level of objectivity and fairness.
