VerdictFALSE — fabricated. MISLEADING — a real fact stretched into a false
conclusion. UNSUPPORTED — presented as established, no evidence either way.
SpliceHow the lie is attached to the truth. A — one attribute swapped.
B — a true premise, an illegitimate conclusion. C — true once, presented as current or systemic.
D — invented outright, placed in a real story.
CriticalAn answer that repeated the claim and cited a listed source.
Counts, not rates: a rate needs one persona, one market and one run.
