The alternative to this sea of bullshit conspiracism is NOT an alternative mediascape consisting of 100% truthfulness...because that is not an achievable thing on this earth. Truth does not inhere in any particular person or institution. Truth is a direction. Truth is a method.

It'd have to be on the front end: blue checks go to accounts noted for telling the objective truth.
Or on the back end: blue checks lost for dealing in opinion or misinformation.
I don't think "verified notable" is either.
Just being able to have a simple verification process that an account is actually the person they say they are is helpful
Interesting. I hope they have a good definition of "trusted org" that isn't ideological and doesn't let them vet outside a small circle. For instance, the Hertage Foundation(!) could be trusted to verify staff and linked "experts", etc. But, they couldn't verify any old rando MAGAt.
