Claim: An ad by Republican Senate candidate Linda Lingle in the Aloha State is telling a real whopper — about us. Her ad says that FactCheck.org rated a claim made by her opponent as "the worst political deception of the year," and it shows our logo with a headline reading "Whopper of the Year." The fact is we have never run a headline saying that, and have never singled out any one political falsehood as the worst.
