How a challenge works
- Anyone can use the “Challenge this verdict” form at the bottom of a story.
- Submissions go into a queue. They never publish, and they never change a story or a verdict by themselves.
- Each one is reviewed with AI assistance against the sources it cites. There is no independent human reviewer.
- If a challenge holds up, the story is corrected, the change is dated on the story, and it is listed below.
Verdicts follow the rules on the methodology page.

- Correction: How many died at Silver Rail Elementary in Bend?
2026-10-15
CORRECTION (Oct. 15, 2026, evening PT): This story was first published rating the claim that the shooting "injured several people, including children" (Mostly True), based on early reports of at least two hospitalized. It now reflects AP's report that at least five people are believed dead. The claim, verdict wording, sources and summary were updated.
