| - Facts have a well known liberal bias. Facts do not exist. There is only truth. And truthiness. Facts, similar to peer-reviewed scientific data, internationally proven collected data, and statistical information based on scientifically established methods are there to confuse us about our own opinions which are more important than facts. Facts come from the head, truthiness comes from the gut. ~ Homer Simpson -REAL AMERICAN!
- Manufactured by Seshadri Industries. Basically an internet access terminal seen in the hallway outside April's room in the Border House. After telling her she can upgrade to voice interface, TruHolo display technology and InstaKredit compatibility, the FACT threatens to contact the FUB because April keeps talking to the machine. She asks the FACT why she should upgrade, when, apparently, the FACT already has a voice interface installed, since it understands April when she says she will just use the touch screen to operate the FACT. The installed voice interface is for sales purposes only, though.

- Fact retrieves information for Count Dregon such as surveillance and intel on the Masked Rider's whereabouts. He floats in mid-air and his arm has a specially crafted satellite that can retrieve any information needed on Masked Rider.
- A fact is a statistic, datum, or event that is objective, observable, and recordable. Facts are used as evidence to make claims. Facts are generally held to be mind-independent, i.e. they would continue to be the case whether or not anyone believed them, or indeed whether or not there were any minds to believe them in the first place. Facts are different from theories, which attempt to explain trends in facts. Facts are also different from opinions, which are subjective interpretations of facts.
- Facts are not copyrightable. "The reason for this rule is that the law of copyright is founded on originality of expression — facts, by their nature, are never original to an author.” Much of what makes the Internet useful is the ability to pull down timely information on a moment’s notice. Much timely information is factual: weather, sports scores, locations, directions, forecasts, departure times, maps, etc.
- Fact - A label given to ones own opinion to discourage open debate or alternate viewpoints. e.g. "It has recently been proven in a doubleblind scientific study conducted by a panel of unbiased and as-far-as-you-know unbribed scientists who where not smoking reefer at the time (for scientific evaluation of mind altering substances) that white kittens with black paws are far cuter than all other kittens. -and puppies, too." The latest statistics show that 50% of all facts are 90% true.
