This document is a 3 December 2014 BuzzFeed email exchange with the subject “Verification CEN and Emergent”, showing Craig Silverman joining Tom Phillips and Alan White as the CEN investigation began to take structured form. It is included in the Source Library as source/evidence material connected to the early development of BuzzFeed’s investigation into Central European News. It records Silverman proposing a shared methodology, spreadsheet-style tracking and “same test” approach for CEN-linked stories, while Phillips discusses dividing up “as-yet-undebunked” items, adding online research results and creating a “breadcrumb trail” of what had been found. It is relevant because it shows Silverman’s arrival did not redirect the inquiry towards original reporting, source contact or on-the-ground verification, but instead helped formalise an online debunking workflow in which suspicious-looking stories were searched, scored, linked and framed as evidence against CEN.
