PUBLIC METHODOLOGY · RADAR

Research, original reporting, and manual review.

Malecón90 consults public sources as reporting material, writes every article independently, and requires manual editorial review of the exact version before publication.

THE CENTRAL IDEA

Sources are consulted. The final writing is original.

References open an internal reporting process, not a reproduction of their publications. Once sufficient documentation exists, the team prepares a new article with its own structure, focus, and wording.

Every dossier requires a final editorial decision: a person reviews the full version, makes required corrections, and decides whether to approve or reject it.

FROM SIGNAL TO DOSSIER

Six steps. No hidden sources.

The process separates private reporting from the version that ultimately receives editorial approval for publication.

  1. 01Documented reference

    Consult a reference

    The editorial team records an identified public source and preserves its link, date, and provenance to document the reporting process.

  2. 02Editorial decision

    Open or link a reporting project

    A person determines whether the reference adds context to an existing subject or should begin a new reporting project.

  3. 03Two consulted sources minimum

    Expand the reporting

    One reference is not enough to publish. Work continues until distinct public sources and sufficient context are available.

  4. 04Original reporting

    Write an original version

    The team compares claims, dates, people, and figures, then writes a new article without reproducing the wording of consulted sources.

  5. 05Required human approval

    Review and decide manually

    A person reviews the full version and may approve it, return it for correction, or reject it. The dossier remains private until express approval exists.

  6. 06Approved version

    Publish with traceability

    Only the approved version becomes public with its sources and dates. Every later update or correction returns to editorial review.

WHEN MORE SOURCES APPEAR

Sources add context; they do not replace our writing.

Each reference is consulted as reporting material. It may add context, flag a discrepancy, or help clarify a detail, but the final article is written and reviewed by the newsroom.

THE FIRST SOURCE IS NOT PUBLISHED

It opens a private dossier, not a public page.

The initial reference is recorded and attributed inside the private reporting process. Publication may occur only after a second distinct source has been consulted and a person has reviewed, corrected, and approved the exact version.

VISIBLE COMMITMENTS

Trust is not declared. It can be checked.

These rules accompany every publication and define what the system may do.

01

References always visible

Every article identifies and links the sources consulted during reporting.

02

One source remains private

A single source may open internal reporting, but it never authorizes a public page.

03

Distinct consulted sources

Multiple stories from the same outlet count as one reference. Publication requires consulting at least two distinct outlets.

04

Original reporting

The final text is created by the newsroom and does not reproduce or reassemble articles from consulted outlets.

05

Required human review

A person reviews the full version and decides whether it should be approved, corrected, or rejected.

06

Images with provenance

External photographs require a license, author, technical validation and controlled storage.

07

Final editorial approval

No technical check replaces the editorial team's express approval before publication.

08

Traceable corrections

Updates and corrections are manually reviewed and retain their date, decision, and relationship to the evidence.

TECHNICAL DETAIL

What happens behind each publication

Public documentation for anyone who wants to review the process in greater depth.

01Publication threshold+

The work remains private until it has at least two distinct consulted sources, a complete original draft, and human editorial approval of the exact version.

02Timeliness and earlier events+

A new signal needs a verifiable date. If it concerns an earlier event, it must identify the concrete update and separate both dates.

03Updates and corrections+

Every later contribution is recorded as evidence. A person validates the changes and approves the new version before the publication is modified.

04Images and rights+

An external image requires an authorized provider and verifiable license metadata; otherwise a neutral cover is used.

05URLs, audit and removal+

Published URLs are stable. Approvals, verified requests, corrections, and removals retain an audit record.
