The challenge
Readers are asked to trust a story without seeing what it rests on. Comlumen set out to show its working: what each story was compiled from, and where it was corrected.
The solution
The front page is set like a front page: an edition strip with the date and the day's count of stories, the lead headline-first beside its picture, an In pictures band and a wire ticker under the masthead. A live bar above the nav carries the markets and the politics desk. Every story ends with a panel that counts its sources and sorts them into official documents and reporting.
Around the news sit topic hubs with timelines, people pages, Comlumen Play's daily crossword and puzzles, and share cards that show the day's front page.
The results
Comlumen is live at comlumen.com, with its own accounts, a free account wall and a subscription.
