I'd settle for the 'facts'... things that most reasonable people can observe and can agree exist/happen. (Whether they survive interpretation is another question.)
'Truth' is one of those lofty aspirations that we like to pretend to reach for, but very few of us (if any) are yet fit to grok. Gotta walk before you can run.
