Two newsroom tools & the concept quiz

Pick a desk and start reporting. Everything runs on your device; nothing is sent anywhere.

Newsroom Data Desk Read the data behind a story, then pick the headline the numbers actually support — and learn to spot the misleading framing an editor might slip in (cherry-picking, tiny samples, "correlation = cause"). Data → headline Evidence Linker Every claim in a story needs a fact behind it. Match a claim to the evidence that truly supports it — and flag the claims that overreach what the data really shows. Claim ↔ evidence Concept Kits 16 quiz kits — 400 questions from "what is journalism?" to bias, fact-checking, and investigative reporting — with a hint after a first miss and an explanation every time.
