Primary vs. Secondary: Why the Record Wins
A filing is the record. A story about the filing is a layer on top of it. NU's rule is to open the record.
NU commentary. This page states NU's own ranking rule. It is commentary about method, not a finding about any person or case.
AI-assisted. Drafted with AI assistance. Disclosure and law references.
Two kinds of source
A primary source is the filing, the docket, the contract, or the transcript. A secondary source is a story about it.
What a layer can do
Every layer between you and the record can drop a detail or shade one. That is not a claim that every story is wrong. It is a reason to open the document the story cites.
The habit
Find the link to the record. Open it. Read the part the headline is about.
Why this is NU's rule
The primary record outranks commentary about it. Placement on these pages is not for sale. Buried vs. Hot is why a dull filing can still sit under a popular story on other search engines. Allegation, Finding, Opinion is how to label what you are reading once the document is open.
This is a method note. It does not prove or disprove any particular claim.
