Three Verification States
Trend covers hot community or social signals, Emerging covers topics with corroboration, and Verified covers stories backed by strong or official sources.
Policy
Editorial Policy
The newsroom runs on automated signals but does not treat every signal equally. Each story carries its own verification state.
Ad Eligibility
Only stories that pass the quality threshold and are marked ad eligible may render ads. Trend stories can still be indexed for discovery but do not run ads.
