Double-check sources to ensure accuracy and credibility
Topic: Exploring tried-and-true methods verified by professionals to refine research and validate every claim
Quote: “Accuracy is non-negotiable, so I double-check everything like my reputation depends on it—because it does. First, I vet my sources, sticking to credible, primary data and cross-referencing when possible. If it's stats, I track them back to the original study or report. For expert quotes, I make sure they're current and contextually relevant, not ripped from a decade-old interview. And before hitting send, I put my pitch through a sanity check: Does it align with what's publicly known? Could I back it up if questioned? It's all about showing you've done your homework—journalists can smell BS from a mile away.”
