Warka groups stories that overlap in topic, entities, timing, and source diversity. Coverage is shown when at least one monitored source is reporting it. Editorial review can mark a comparison as weak, misleading, or unreliable; when it does, the AI summary is removed from this page and only the reporting from the sources remains. We do not publish a single trust score — readers can judge using source diversity, reporting overlap, and the original reports linked from every comparison.
