# Claims
These use classifications are Bruiser's editorial decisions for this research package. No News Corp brand approval is claimed. A supported source establishes only the statement and scope assessed here; it is not a legal clearance or a guarantee. Historical metrics are conditional, not evergreen headline copy.

## Measurement discipline
Company-wide digital audience, a news-only category, one masthead and an advertising-network roll-up are different populations. Overlap prevents summing them. Do not combine a Roy Morgan cross-platform period with an Ipsos digital month as though they share a denominator. A dated source can support a historical fact without supporting a present-tense ranking.
## Evidence handling
The audience figure above is a company-reported result citing Ipsos, not an independently acquired Ipsos dataset. No raw research dataset or advertiser-specific forecast was supplied. Rechecking a link does not extend a study's measurement period. Source dates remain source dates; package last_updated records this package's creation.
