Assessment

Supported

Score: 0.9830 under ledger-default@0.3.0 at snapshot 27745

2 of 4 review checks done · 2 counted

3 independent evidence lineages · review checks 2 of 4 · stability HIGH

Main unresolved issue: 4 counted evidence items have no independence review; repeats of one origin may be counted as several coverage:3dc55cb7-a8a5-8113-8055-6dda7d61ff18

Not yet independently audited.A quoted passage from nbcnews.com and whsv.com was not found on the page when Galedra fetched it.

Why?

Strongest counted support: Reporters from the three outlets were denied access to White House grounds on September 19. weight 1.800000 evidence

Suppressed as dependent: The excerpt directly states that reporters from CNN, MS NOW, and Politico said they were denied access to White House grounds on Saturday after Trump announced a ban.

Review gaps: independence reviewed, primary source reviewed

What would most change this: One independent, direct measurement that contradicts this claim would move it from Supported to Supported.

How the number was reached

Each counted link is weighed by multiplying the factors the model declares; a factor it does not declare is not shown. Every factor name below links to what that number means.

prior 0.50 → log-odds 0.000000 + 4.059000 (the counted weights) = 4.059000 → probability 0.9830

Under neighbouring settings of the same model: 0.9449 to 0.9949, a spread of 0.0500.

Half-even rounding, six places for weights and four for the probability. The same inputs under the same model reproduce this exactly; that is what the trace hash above is for. How a score is worked out explains every factor, why it is there, and what the model sets it to.

Inferences

Concluded from

None.

Used as a premise in

None.

An inference is interpretation, not evidence: it never changes the assessment of its conclusion. Each premise is a claim with its own evidence.

Threads

None. Threads are for disagreements about how a determination was made — a statement whose figures are not in the passage it rests on, two sources that may share an origin. Something about the world belongs in the evidence above.

Claim edges

None. Edges are stored and displayed; v0.1 does not propagate probability across them.
