02

Verification. Every finding is reviewed against primary sources before entering the queue. No rumours, no thin evidence.

03

Early access. Verified journalists get the full brief — evidence, sources, dollar breakdown — 48 hours before it goes public.

04

Goes live Monday. Finding publishes on Reckoner, social posts fire, and the next finding enters the queue.
