The Heritage Foundation is an American conservative think tank; editors have found that it promotes disinformation. Heritage and its then-publication [[The Daily Signal]] were found generally unreliable due to the presumption of unreliability for [[think tank]]s and reporting such as [[climate change denial]]; the 2025 RfC deprecated Heritage. However, The Daily Signal was spun off from the Heritage Foundation in June 2024, and the 2025 RfC close did not address its reliability or functional independence.
