How this was made

The stories come from news.pr's live front page, the same rail readers see. An AI wrote the transcript and a validator held it to the contract: real headlines only, figures quoted verbatim from the coverage or not at all. Each anchor's lines were read in that anchor's own voice, and the newscast was rendered and gated before it published. The video above is the file the gate passed.
