Newsrooms in 2026 are running leaner than ever! The BBC. Vox. The Washington Post. CBS. The same week the cuts were announced, the deadlines didn't change. The standards didn't change. The byline still carries the same weight it always did. (1/5) ⏬

The one question the journalism industry hasn’t answered yet.. AI changed how journalism gets written. It didn’t change who gets blamed. If AI writes the first draft, 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐨𝐫? (1/4)👇

Should have used Veracity App to verify..😭 #journalism #transcripts #veracity #newsrooms #ai

Every article was reviewed by a human editor. 𝐒𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐥, 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐟 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠! In a recent case: AI said a $10k deposit at 3% would earn $10,300. The real earnings? $300. It looked right, though.. That’s the problem. (1/3) 👇

The difference between good and great journalism? Verifying what’s on record. 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗾𝘂𝗼𝘁𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱. 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗱. 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗲. That’s always been the standard. (continued 👇)(1/7)

One of the main reasons why Anthropic has surpassed OpenAI in valuation and ARR is not just because it has targeted corporate clients aggressively.. It is also because it invests heavily in R&D and has a solid team behind it. That’s been a core focus for us at Veracity. (continue👇)

Halfway through Twisters, something clicked: The story only exists because someone was willing to chase it—literally. A journalist climbs into a truck, drives straight into a tornado, and captures what no dataset ever could. Read here: open.substack.com/pub/offrecor...

One AI-generated quote cost a senior editor his job. Because it wasn’t real. This isn’t a future problem. It’s already happening. Every journalist using AI needs to see this: veracityai.app/blog/a-senio...

One phrase. No source. Thousands of shares. This is how misinformation travels — not as an obvious lie, but as something that sounds right. Historically grounded enough to repeat without checking.

I came across this insight and it reframes the whole sourcing conversation: sources almost never want to be the only named person in a story. They want to be part of a chorus. The moment you can say "three others are already on the record," the math changes. open.substack.com/pub/offrecor...

Journalists built careers on not printing what they can't verify. AI asks them to trust a black box. Veracity gives them something they actually respect: a source. #AIinjournalism

Around 1 in 3 AI summaries drifts from what was actually said. The tools don't flag it. Journalists pay for it. What the research shows — and what to do about it: veracityai.app/blog/30-of-ai-summaries-get-the-facts-wrong-and-your-newsroom-is-probably-using-one #AIJournalism #Journalism
