No I think that when multiple people are telling history there is usually one that is correct and it's usually the ones that were actually physically present at the time it occurred.
There aren't multiple liars, there are multiple liars and one person telling the truth. You aren't seeking a "middle", you're seeking the person telling the truth. "The middle" would be incorrect as well, as it would be in-between the lie and the truth.
