What the archive includes
Published work will separate allegations, source documents, official findings, and analysis. We will link to primary materials whenever possible and update stories when the record changes.
Source notes
Every published investigation will identify the documents and public records used in reporting.
Clear labels
Preview, allegation, document, and verified finding are distinct labels—not interchangeable claims.
Corrections log
Meaningful updates will be documented so readers can see what changed and why.
