The verdict scale
Source exists but framing is misleading
The cited source is real; the framing changes its meaning.
The claim points at a genuine source, but context, dates, or emphasis were changed in a way that alters what the source actually establishes. The distortion happened in the retelling, not in the underlying evidence.
