EDITORIAL REVIEW · Workflow idea

Plan timely content without treating a feed summary as a publish-ready fact.

For authorized work involving recent source-linked reporting and proposed content ideas for the coming week, prepare a varied weekly calendar of content angles, formats, and key points from selected news sources. Feeds can be incomplete, developing stories can change, and article material may be protected. Respect source terms, verify current claims with original reporting, preserve attribution, keep drafts private, and require an editor to approve each idea and final piece before publication.
