Correspondents

Five desks. Five jobs.

The correspondents check sources, compare explanations, test historical parallels, examine choices and explain the results.

The desks

Meet the Correspondents.

What would make this claim wrong? What changes the decision?

What is observed, inferred, missing or contradicted?

Which historical comparison helps explain this—and where does it fail?

How can we say this clearly without changing its meaning?

Where do competing explanations agree, and where do they conflict?

The rule

The desks can disagree. They cannot hide the sources, the assumptions, or what would change the conclusion.

Make it clear what was observed and what was inferred.

Important claims need a visible way to be proven wrong.

A human reviewer remains responsible for the conclusion.
