An excerpt from BalkanWeb

Demokrati Abdul El-Sayed ka fituar garën për një vend në Senatin amerikan, duke mundur kandidatin republikan Mike Rogers në shtetin e Michiganit, sipas projeksioneve të Decision Desk HQ dhe raportimeve të mediave amerikane. El-Sayed, me profesion mjek dhe pjesë e krahut progresist të Partisë Demokratike, pritet të bëhet senatori i parë mysliman në historinë e Shteteve të Bashkuara. Gjatë fjalimit të fitores, ai iu drejtua mbështetësve me fjalët: “Michigan, ia dolëm!”. Pas fitores, demokrati nuk la pa komentuar as zëvendëspresidentin JD Vance, duke iu referuar ceremonisë së betimit në janar. “JD, habibi im, ka një ironi të këndshme në faktin se je i detyruar kushtetues të më betosh në janar”, deklaroi ai, duke përdorur një shprehje arabe që përkthehet si “i dashur”. Abdul El-Sayed to JD Vance: JD, habibi, there is this delicious irony in the fact that you’re constitutionally obligated to swear me in in January. https://t.co/4XwZejXsm8 — Clash Report (@clashreport) November 4, 2026…

What is still uncertain

From Mosaic, not from a publisher

Mosaic is not sure that every article is about the same event; the grouping is waiting for a check.
So far only BalkanWeb reports this story on Mosaic, so there is no other coverage to compare it with.

How we decide

From Mosaic, not from a publisher

An article's time is the date its publisher gives, when that is plausible: not in the future, and not more than 180 minutes before Mosaic found the article. Otherwise it is when Mosaic first saw it. "Earliest report found by Mosaic" is the one with the earliest time; it does not prove that its outlet published first.

An article is marked "Repeats another outlet's text" when its cleaned text is word for word the same as another article's in the story, or nearly the same (the two texts' SimHash fingerprints differ in at most 12 of 64 bits). Both texts must have at least 30 words, and the articles must be within 48 hours of each other. That does not say who took it from whom: it can be a news agency's text or a press release that several outlets published.

It is also marked when at least 50 % of the two texts' three-word sequences are shared (estimated with MinHash), as with a copy whose lead, footer or page elements differ.

A story leads with the eligible report with the highest current score, when every eligible report has one. Otherwise it leads with the earliest report found by Mosaic, which says nothing about its quality. Reports repeating another outlet's text and paid or organisation-issued articles are left out of the comparison.

Think one of these labels is wrong? Use "Contest this" beside it: staff look at every one.
