How to Make Sense of Leaked Documents

When you open a new leak, your first instinct might be to share it everywhere. Hold up for a sec: check the source, see if the document matches known formats, and verify dates. A quick Google search of key phrases can confirm whether other outlets have reported the same data.

If the file is a massive spreadsheet, focus on headline numbers first – total amounts, names of companies, or dates of transactions. Then drill down to see who signed off on what. This step‑by‑step approach keeps you from getting lost in details and helps you spot the most newsworthy parts.

Remember, leaks can be weaponized, so always look for corroborating reports before jumping to conclusions. Our tag page curates stories that have been cross‑checked by reputable journalists, giving you a reliable starting point.
