Every piece ends with what we expect next. Here is whether it came true.
Saying what happens next is easy. Being counted on it is not. Every story we publish ends with a call — and two weeks later we come back, look at what actually happened, and mark it: happened, partly, or missed.
We judge ourselves strictly and against our own interest. A publication that counts its misses can be checked. One that does not, cannot.
No call has come of age yet — we give each one two weeks before judging it.
