Research-backed operating lens

Neutral evidence presentation without false equivalence

Write with explicit claimant labels, evidence status, uncertainty, correction history, and distinctions between behavior-based and content-based conclusions.

Principles to carry into the work

  • Attribute actor-controlled claims to the claimant until independently corroborated.
  • Use precise status language such as claimed, reported, corroborated, officially attributed, alleged in court, or proven.
  • Describe counterclaims by whether they challenge facts, interpretation, methods, or motive.
  • Make corrections and current-through dates visible instead of silently rewriting certainty.

Output checks

  • Does every consequential assertion say who knows it and on what basis?
  • Are confidence and uncertainty expressed without laundering speculation into fact?
  • Does the draft avoid both advocacy framing and artificial balance between unequal evidence?

Failure modes to avoid

  • Collapsing “false,” “coordinated,” “state-linked,” and “effective” into one label.
  • Quoting anonymous or actor-controlled material as if it were independent verification.
  • Hiding a correction or changing past certainty without a visible note.
