How Peckture Works

1

THE PECK

The fast factual TL;DR. Material who, what, when, where, and key numbers.

2

THE CHECK

Source transparency and verification status. Who reported each claim and what's confirmed.

3

THE BIG PICTURE

Original context and analysis. Why it matters and what to watch next.
