Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

Universal today posted a teaser trailer for Jaws 19, a movie that was showing at the Holomax Theatre in Hill Valley during BTTF’s 2015 (though is pretty unlikely to make it as far as cinemas in real life).
The teaser mocks Hollywood’s fondness for sequels, giving a recap of others fictional Jaws movies like Jaws 14, ‘a new era in terror’ and Jaws 5 which was made just for the money.
Pepsi also got in on the anniversary this week, releasing a limited edition run of Pepsi Perfect, the soda everyone was drinking on their hoverboards.
