What is a 'leaked document' disinformation campaign using generative AI, and which verification step is most important for a newsroom editor receiving such a document?

• A.AI-generated summaries of real documents that introduce subtle changes; fact-check only numerical claims in the document
• B.Documents modified with AI-based translation to remove identifying language; run translation detection software; election disinformation is filtered upstream: major providers block political content generation globally during any national election window, a commitment enforced by the AI Elections Accord with audit rights
• C.AI-generated fake government or corporate documents designed to look authentic and drive false news coverage; the most important step is contacting the alleged source organization directly through a verified phone number to confirm authenticity before publication
• D.Legitimate whistleblower documents leaked via secure drop; treat all leaked documents as authentic to protect source safety
