Not quite. When reading an article I want nearly all facts to be correct. Otherwise it won't do me any good. Now if I sample two facts and one is true, the other is false, it makes it unlikely that the article is mostly true. Sure, it is also unlikely that nearly every facts is false, but that's still not very comforting.
