They already had two units with established brands working on this sort of thing: BBC Monitoring, reviewing activity on social media and other media outlets around the world, revealing the truth about stories from people “on the ground”; and BBC Reality Check, which sought to confirm or debunk claims made by public figures and so on - in an effort to combat disinformation.It's perhaps noticeable that the URL for BBC Verify on the news website is www.bbc.co.uk . The web page title on the browser tab even says "Reality Check - BBC News" due to it still being in the <title> tag of the web page's source code, as well as various META tags within the head section.
