Democracy Docket (advocacy-left)

5 audits on the record

Every sentence below was reproduced from a frozen snapshot of this masthead’s own page, at the character offset the audit records. This is what the desk has quoted from Democracy Docket (advocacy-left) — not a verdict on it.

These numbers are not a fault score. A hard contradiction means two accounts cannot both be true; it does not say which one is wrong, and this desk does not decide. A masthead appears in these counts because it covered a contested story, which is usually a sign it was doing its job. Outlets that publish more, and get read more, appear more. Read the counts as exposure, not as error.

Quoted from this masthead

“The administration eliminated a federal email-to-fax service that helped service members return election materials, made last-minute changes to the federal forms they use to register and request ballots and tried to overhaul mail ballot rules before courts blocked those efforts for the midterms.”
