How we grade sources. Every story is labeled by where it comes from — not what it says.
T0 is the primary source itself: government press releases, court rulings, agency data.
T1 is wire-service reporting of verified facts (AP, Reuters, AFP, UPI) — who, what, when, where, no adjectives.
T2 is established press confirmed across multiple independent outlets.
T3 is trade and specialty analysis, where expert interpretation is the point.
T4 is independent, perspective-driven journalism — included, and labeled, so you know the lens you're reading through.
