    But then the journalists have to check if the source is trustworthy, as usual. Then they can add their own signature to help other papers check it

      To that extent, we already have that.

      I go to ‘https://cnn.com’, I have cryptographic verification that cnn attests to the videos served there. I go to youtube, and I have assurances that the uploader is authenticated as the name I see in the description.

      If I see a repost of material claimed to be from a reliable source, I can go chase that down if I care (and I often do).
