Editorial Policy
How We Work
Transparency isn’t a marketing line for us. It’s the whole point. Here’s how we select, write, label, correct, and build.
Multi-Perspective Approach
Every story in the Daily Briefing is analyzed through three labeled lenses: Legacy & Mainstream media, Specialized & Industry press, and Regional & International outlets. We chose this framework because the real gap in news coverage isn’t left-versus-right — it’s the difference between what mainstream outlets emphasize, what domain experts notice, and what the rest of the world actually sees.
We name specific sources within each perspective. “Mainstream media says” isn’t good enough. You’ll see which outlets we drew from and how each frames the story.
Bias Labeling
Bias is a feature of all journalism — ours included. Our methodology doesn’t eliminate it; it names it. Every perspective section carries an explicit label so you know the lens before you read through it. We never reduce stories to a binary Left/Right split. The spectrum is wider than that, and our readers are smart enough to handle the nuance.
Corrections Policy
We get things wrong sometimes. When we do, we fix it fast and say so clearly. Corrections are appended to the original article with a dated note describing what changed and why. We don’t silently edit published work. If you spot an error, email contact@threerulescompany.com and we’ll investigate.
How We Build Each Edition
Underlines runs on an AI-powered editorial pipeline. We’re not going to pretend otherwise, and we’re not apologetic about it either. AI is what lets a small team scan thousands of sources across languages and time zones every morning — something no traditional newsroom of our size could do.
Here’s what that actually means: AI systems draft initial analyses from source material. Then multiple independent review agents audit every piece — checking facts against sources, testing claims, flagging weak framing, and enforcing our style standards. Most of what the pipeline produces gets rejected. The stories and perspectives that survive are the ones that held up under scrutiny.
Our editors set story selection criteria, audit output quality, and make the final call on what ships. This is how we cover more of the world, in more depth, from more angles, every single day. That’s not a compromise — it’s the whole point.
Story Selection
Each Daily Briefing covers stories across three sections: Global & US Headlines, Business & Economics, and Technology & Science. Selection is based on significance, not virality. We look for stories where the gap between different outlets’ framing is wide enough to be worth examining — the stories where reading just one source leaves you meaningfully misinformed.
