• ▸Sourcing — References OPB, the Associated Press, FEC filings and campaign statements.

• ▸Counterarguments presented — Gluesenkamp Perez directly criticizes the endorsement and the article gives her response.
• ▸Source diversity — Uses campaign statements, public filings and reporting attributed to other outlets.
