Chandler Friedman is a fact checker and 'dupe sniper' at Lead Stories. He is a former local and network level assignment editor with nearly 15 years of experience, most recently in Atlanta.
(In case you are wondering what a 'dupe sniper' is: it is someone on the lookout for old hoaxes, fake stories and other long-debunked tales that keep resurfacing over and over again on new websites or in new Facebook groups, so these duplicates, a.k.a. 'dupes', can be dealt with)
