The history of journalism is a reflection of the history of any country. It has absorbed all the contradictions, aspirations, searches, heroism and betrayal, tragedies and disappointments of the most different periods of our common development. The history of journalism of the twentieth century shows us that in any era, at any turn and trials, there are those who uphold the ideals of the profession, continue to search for the truth and have the courage to speak the truth, no matter how bitter it may sometimes be. But there are those who deceive everyone. Deception and falsification of facts can even lead to wars, remember what caused the beginning of the Second World War.
Thoughts that can often visit a journalist - it would be great not to depend on anyone and just come up with your own stories from beginning to end. With events that didn’t happen, with people who didn’t tell you anything, or maybe don’t exist at all - but how beautiful everything would be! In addition, Rupert Murdoch's principle “speed is more important than accuracy” fits perfectly here, which is a professional prerequisite for introducing the concept of fake into the minds of journalists. And from this - just a step to the use of opening manipulative opportunities to influence the audience. But you need to understand that journalism differs from literature in that it is impossible to invent anything in it.
Fact-checking is the verification of facts presented on a website or in a printed publication. The author or editor must check the information in texts, videos and pictures. This is done by someone who cares not only about the quality of information, but also the trust of site visitors and professional reputation. If people find out that they have been lied to, the resource on which this article is posted, even if it is just an online store, will be less trusted. And in the media, fake news often leads to a complete loss of reputation.
Fact-checking guarantees the reliability of information and strengthens the reputation of the business and the information resource, increases customer confidence. But there is also a downside - the need to spend a lot of time and resources on checking, delve into a large number of materials to obtain accurate data. And now, when a huge amount of information is generated every minute in the world for a person, it is very difficult even for a specialist in the field of fact-checking to navigate in such a stream. How to do it?
To increase the accuracy of the checked content, the Exorde system was created. Exorde is built around a core platform that provides unbiased credibility scores for information (and virality-related analytics) based on the community, AI modules, and a token-based economy.
This platform is decentralized, open and transparent. This is where participants will work together to index the entire network, extract its unstructured information, relationships, similarities, trends, and any type of pattern in information circulating throughout the internet, regardless of platform or media.
Exorde as a knowledge network can use the unstructured content of the Internet and perform a first-of-its-kind analysis of the virality of information circulating throughout the network.
In addition, the Exorde Labs team is proud to announce the launch of the Testnet, which will consist of four stages:
This is just the beginning of the Exorde journey, and even the Testnet journey itself!
Stage 1: Initial observation, where the Exorde Labs team will be the only participant to check that everything works well enough and the system is stable enough. This phase should last ~7 days.
Stage 2: Gradual opening of Testnet for beta testers. The team will release web scraping modules (only compatible with Windows, Linux and Mac for now later this summer) to participate in Testnet. A web dashboard will be provided to monitor network activity, statistics and URLs. This phase should last 1 month.
Stage 3: Consolidation. Testnet should be open to anyone who wants to download open source modules and participate! This phase will include more detailed web panels showing blocks of data being mined on the Exorde network, the number of free and employed workers, protocol details with additional statistics, URLs, and more. End of July, beginning of August.
Stage 4: Testnet v0.2, with improved staking mechanisms, rewards and dynamic protocol settings. Constant improvements, the most advanced web scraping modules! End of summer - September.
