A large-scale TV video and metadata database for French political content analysis and fact-checking

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a large-scale multimodal publicly available dataset 1 for the French political content analysis and factchecking. This dataset consists of more than 1, 200 fact-checked claims that have been scraped from a fact-checking service with associated metadata. For the video counterpart, the dataset contains nearly 6, 730 TV programs, having a total duration of 6, 540 hours, with metadata. These programs have been collected during the 2022 French presidential election with a dedicated workstation.
