Our reporting definition
We publish reporting: events that occurred, statements that were made, figures that were disclosed. Each story names its sources and distinguishes between confirmed facts, official statements and preliminary figures.
In practice that means a reader can tell, in the line itself, whether a number is final, whether a quote came from a document or a briefing, and whether a claim rests on one party's account. Where those three things are mixed together without a label, the story is not finished yet.
