Why am I seeing this Ranked on source trust — Microsoft
It ranks mainly on source trust: Microsoft is the most reliable outlet we track on this subject, and is the only one on the story so far.
StandardStandard, because a first-party source is on it, the subject was identified from the text, and it scores 0.58 against a bar of 0.50.
| Factor | Weight | Score | Contribution | Where it came from |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| Freshness | 0.20 | 0.99 | +0.198 34% | Halves every 10 hours from the newest item on the story. This is the only factor that rewards a story for nothing more than being recent. |
Corroboration counts distinct organisations, once each, and only from tiers 1 and 2. Freshness halves every 10 hours, so this ranking is a snapshot and will differ at the next build.
