fact-check-workflow

A fact-checking workflow structures journalism verification through claim extraction, evidence gathering, source contact, rating, and documentation to maintain publication accuracy. It enforces systematic protocols before publishing.

Verifying a politician's speech requires logging each claim, gathering official evidence, contacting sources for response, and preparing any necessary corrections before publication using structured claim extraction and documentation.

Document evidence during fact-checking using guided research logs, source evaluation tables, and checklists, then apply rating templates to transparently rate each claim and document follow-up steps.

This fact-checking workflow serves newsroom fact-checkers verifying statements, rating claims, and training verification protocols before publishing, making it suitable for establishing standardized editorial procedures.

Correction logs in journalism fact-checking document follow-up steps and necessary corrections before publication, ensuring transparent rating and accountability when claims are found to be inaccurate.

No external dependencies are required to run this claim verification workflow. It operates independently to enforce structured claim extraction, evidence gathering, and documentation protocols for rigorous reporting.
