How to read this desk

Follow the evidence, not just the headline.

Independent reporting, specialist analysis, company announcements, research, and official records serve different purposes. We label them rather than treating them as interchangeable. Some destinations require subscriptions or restrict automated access. We link to the original publisher and do not reproduce full articles or bypass access controls.

A press release can establish what a company announced, but not independent performance or commercial success. A preprint is not necessarily peer reviewed. For legislation, verify jurisdiction, document type, current action, and effective date in the official record.
