Every source Vidik watches, with its trust weight and the reason for it. A registry nobody can audit is a registry nobody trusts.
Weights: 0.95-1.00 institutions on their own remit · 0.80-0.90 agencies and investigative newsrooms · 0.65-0.80 outlets with a masthead · 0.50-0.65 local portals · 0.20-0.45 tabloid and aggregator, corroboration only.

BIRN's BiH desk. Published methodology, court-record sourcing, and the most precise use of judicial status language in the market, which is exactly what the defamation guard depends on.

State-level public broadcaster with a statutory obligation to cover both entities; one of the few genuinely cross-entity newsrooms.
