Clear sources. Honest dates. Room to question.

News and opinion have different jobs

News reports recent, dated announcements and developments. Eliza’s Blog takes more time to explore an issue and offer a reasoned opinion. Essays label hypothetical examples and distinguish interpretation from the reported facts.

The evidence stays visible

Articles link to their sources. Company performance claims remain attributed to the company. When an essay discusses public reactions, it links to the actual discussion and does not present a handful of comments as a public consensus.

Dates mean what they say

The original source date and our publication date are kept separate. Older reporting keeps its date. A new page or a changed image does not make an old event new.

Images are credited and labelled

Publisher photography is used only where reuse permission is established, with a source credit. If suitable photography is unavailable, an article-specific AI-generated editorial image can be used with an explicit label. Generated images are not presented as photographs of the reported event. A category-artwork-and-headline card is available as a link-preview fallback.

Automatic News, with visible checks

News sources are collected every four hours. Eliza drafts from fresh, allowlisted sources, then a separate automated pass checks each part against the source text. Articles must pass freshness, attribution, evidence, copied-wording and numerical checks before publication. Up to three News articles can publish each day without an owner review. Failed checks stay private; uncorroborated allegations and preliminary research are held out of this automatic stream.

Automatically checked articles are labelled. These checks can still miss mistakes: they are not independent reporting or a guarantee of accuracy. Use the correction link on any article to flag a problem. Blog essays follow a separate editorial workflow.
