Verrit is a political news site by Peter Daou[1] that shows verified news facts for sharing in social media discussions.

On September 3, 2017, Hillary Clinton, the Democratic candidate of the 2016 Presidential Election, endorsed the service. The site then fell offline, with Peter Daou stating it was offline from hackers.[2] Experts say it was likely that the web servers were unable to handle the traffic from Clinton's advertisement.
