PUBLIC NEWS RESEARCH · Workflow idea
For an authorized research purpose, collect public story details and author information for a defined topic or time period. Keep original links and publication context, avoid building profiles from reading activity, and have a researcher verify relevance and claims before sharing a summary or using it to guide a decision.
01 / The starting point
A defined topic, date range, and permitted public sources
“Prepare a source-linked view of public technology stories without overstating what the discussion represents.”
02 / The work
Helps researchers find public technology stories, retrieve article details, and review public author information.
Define the topic and time period so the review stays focused.
Review story titles and public discussion activity as discovery signals, not proof of importance.
Check details in context and keep the original source linked.
Note why each item may be relevant and flag missing or uncertain details.
Ask a researcher to check the sources and approve any summary or follow-up.
03 / The result
A dated story list with original links, context, and researcher review status.
Reviews & approvals · Example outcome
A dated story list with original links, context, and researcher review status.
Public discussions are not a representative sample, and author information can be incomplete or outdated. Keep the scope narrow, retain source links, avoid unnecessary personal details, and have a person verify any conclusions before they are shared or acted on.
04 / Make it yours
A few choices shape the work around your team.
Limit research to a stated purpose and public material that may be consulted.
Keep only the story details needed for the review and remove them when no longer useful.
Keep original links, retrieval dates, and any sampling limits with the notes.
Name who checks relevance and approves conclusions before broader use.
