News research

Search news sources for recent reporting, with region and freshness controls.

When to use

  • Current events, releases, controversies, policy changes.
  • Building the "current" family for a topic that has a time dimension.
  • Checking whether reporting on an event exists and from whom.

Tools used

  • search_news — from query, with region code (default US) and limit.

Workflow

  1. Pin the question; decide the region.
  2. search_news; sort results with freshness in mind (date matters).
  3. Check the outlet + date + byline; web-reader the article before quoting.
  4. Corroborate important claims with claim-verification — one outlet is not consensus.

Input schema

{ "query": "str", "limit": "int", "region": "str" }

Output schema

{ "results": "list[{title,url,outlet,date}]" }

Security

Headlines are claims, not facts. Record outlet/date as part of the evidence; do not present single-outlet coverage as settled.
