🔎 How We Check Facts
The jokes are optional. The facts are not.
The rules of the barn
- Every story is real. We don't invent news. We don't have to.
- We read it exactly as written. If it's ridiculous, it'll tell on itself.
- Real sources, linked. Original documents, official releases and reputable reporting. Not "a guy on the internet said."
- Name the trick, not the team. Spin gets called out no matter who's spinning.
- Corrections are visible. If we get it wrong, we say so out loud, right here, with a date. Bouncer files the report.
🐾 The Sniff Test
Sniffer sniffs every claim and rates how off it smells, in squirrels:
- 🐿️ 1 Smells fine. Sniffer is bored.
- 🐿️🐿️ 2 A little whiff. Read the fine print.
- 🐿️🐿️🐿️ 3 "Up to" is doing a lot of work.
- 🐿️🐿️🐿️🐿️ 4 Tail is up. Something is buried here.
- 🐿️🐿️🐿️🐿️🐿️ 5 Full squirrel. Do not trust. Bouncer has been called.
📋 Corrections log
No corrections yet, because we haven't published anything yet. Very clean record. Suspiciously clean. Sniffer is looking into it.
