About Who Said What
Documenting public statements for accountability and truth
Our Mission
Who Said What is dedicated to creating a comprehensive, verified archive of public statements made by public figures, organizations, and institutions. We believe that accountability begins with accurate documentation.
In an era of rapidly changing narratives and information overload, we provide a reliable reference point for what was actually said, when it was said, and in what context. Every statement in our database is meticulously sourced and cited using Harvard referencing standards.
Our Values
Accuracy
Every statement is verified against primary sources. We cite our sources using academic standards and maintain archives for long-term verification.
Neutrality
We document statements without editorial commentary. Our role is to preserve the record, not to interpret it.
Transparency
All our sources are publicly accessible. We show our methodology and make our verification process clear to all users.
Preservation
We archive sources to ensure that statements remain verifiable even if original sources are removed or altered.
