What kinds of tags and/or data structures might they benefit from?

 

Gemini said

News producers benefit from structures that turn "claims" into verifiable assets.

  1. Provenance Metadata: OriginID (hash of primary document), SourceURL (direct PDF/link), and WitnessID (unique identifier for on-the-ground contributors).

  2. Disclosure Badges: OwnershipType (e.g., non-profit, venture-backed), FundingSource, and EditorialStance (self-identified framework).

  3. Factual Anchors: ClaimList (bulleted core facts) and ConsensusScore (percentage of local outlets reporting the same facts).

  4. Semantic Categories: Standardized tags for local issues like [Infrastructure], [Public-Safety], or [Zoning], enabling automated aggregation.

  5. Audit Logs: VersionHistory (tracking corrections) and VerificationStamp (timestamp of the last "quality control" check).
