How COMPAMIR structures news
How we gather public reporting, organize it by event, and make differences between accounts easier to compare.
1. Gather
We collect publicly available news reporting and organize what each article says about who, what, when, where, why, and how.
2. Arrange reporting by event
Reports about the same event are grouped using signals such as headlines, timing, and named people. Links to the original reporting remain available so readers can inspect each account.
3. Compare accounts
When we find different numbers, causes, timelines, or descriptions, we create an entry point for comparing those accounts. It does not decide which account is correct; it highlights what readers may want to examine in the original reporting.
4. Keep updates visible
When new reporting is added to an event, readers can follow the changes through the event page and its update history rather than relying only on the first report.
Limitations
Automated processing can group separate events too closely or miss differences between reports. COMPAMIR is an aid for reading reporting, not a guarantee of truth or completeness. For important decisions, consult original reporting and primary materials directly.
