How this was worked out

Groups of near-identical headlines and descriptions (SimHash distance of 6 bits or less) from different outlets within 3 hours. A group is flagged when at least 3 of its outlets are rated below 45 for reliability. Groups that copy a wire agency (Reuters, AP, AFP and others) are shown but not flagged: syndication is normal.
