The 12-axis reliability rubric
The reliability score above is a weighted mean over these twelve axes. The bias score uses a separate but equally-public 12-axis rubric. Per-axis breakdowns are written by the bias_scorer agent into sources.axes; the keys below are the axis names as documented in the agent prompt.
- Primary sourcing
Cites filings, official statements, direct interviews; uses 'reportedly' rarely.
- Correction transparency
Issues visible corrections; surfaces them above the article body, not in 8pt at the bottom.
- Conflict-of-interest disclosure
Names ownership, sponsorships, and reporter conflicts inline.
- Headline–body alignment
Headlines match the strongest claim the body actually supports; no rage-bait variance.
- Quote attribution
Names speaker and venue; avoids anonymous quotes for attributable claims.
- Numeracy
Numbers shown with denominators, time-windows, and units; ratios not confused with percentages.
- Beat depth
Reporters cover beats long enough to recognize narrative drift in their own coverage.
- Geographic balance
Coverage doesn't over-index on the home market when the story is global.
- Counter-perspective
Includes the strongest version of the argument it disagrees with, not the weakest.
- Aggregation discipline
When citing other outlets, names them and links them; doesn't launder reporting.
- Speculation flag
Marks analysis and opinion separately from reporting.
- Editorial independence
Newsroom shielded from advertiser, ownership, and government influence in observable behavior.
