How we verify fast
- Primary evidence first. Official records, on-the-record statements, court filings, and datasets that can be audited.
- Visual authentication. Time and place checks on photos and video, with manipulation screening before publication.
- Accountability edits. When details change, headlines and copy change with visible timestamps. Opinion is labeled as opinion.
Editorial lens
We interrogate power with a global, multipolar view. Coverage centers outcomes for people on the ground and follows the hard mechanics of the world: supply chains, currency shifts, sanctions design, shipping lanes, energy strategy, cyber capacity, and information integrity.
