Uncertainty

Where evidence is thin or reporting diverges, the fact-check entries above say so explicitly rather than manufacturing certainty. Claims marked “Unverifiable” or “Missing context” reflect genuine gaps in the available evidence, not editorial judgment.

Evidence

Fact

Every source the pipeline retrieved, grouped by evidence tier. Repeated reporting of the same original claim is not counted as independent confirmation.

Methodology

AI analysis

This analysis was produced by an automated daily pipeline: feeds are retrieved and normalized, URLs canonicalized, near-duplicates removed, and articles describing the same underlying event are clustered. Claims are extracted as atomic, testable propositions; evidence is retrieved in tiers from primary sources down to commentary; each claim is verified against that evidence; then reporting analysis and — separately — biblical analysis are performed. Every stage emits validated structured data, and any stage that fails validation is quarantined for human review instead of being published.

Publisher reputation, author reputation, and ideology never determine whether a factual claim is true. The biblical classifier examines only the specific reported conduct, and its result cannot change the factual findings.
