How to read a briefing

Every statement is marked by how well it’s backed up. The small numbers link to the sources.

The bridge closed to traffic on March 3.
Confirmed. Two or more independent outlets report it. Set as plain text.
Repairs are expected to take six weeks.
One outlet. Likely accurate, but not yet confirmed elsewhere. Dotted underline.
About 40,000 drivers used it each day.
Sources differ. Outlets give different accounts, and a note says what each reports. Wavy underline.

The main briefing sticks to facts. When a topic is debated, a separate section shows what each side has said, in their own words and with sources. Vane doesn’t pick a side.
