The Omnifesto

Omnium News was built as a reaction to a theory about misinformation. That theory is that misinformation is often just stale information — a headline, a clip, or even a full story that penetrated the news cycle but never got revised with the same breaking-news fervor that introduced it. Put simply: people rarely update their beliefs because updates rarely reach them.

Information has never been more available. The loudest fragment still wins the day. We're offering another option: follow important stories and get notified when the evidence changes.

Omnium News tracks how the evidence on stories changes over time.

We show our current read with sources, open questions, and a full revision history. We purposely do not deliver a verdict on "truth." Omnium News is not a feed built for outrage. We hold conclusions lightly and evidence seriously. Certainty isn't the goal; better understanding is.

We believe news should tell you what happened, not how to feel. With a clear field of evidence, you can figure out how to feel on your own.

We are not building a destination feed optimized for outrage or virality. We are not delivering a final verdict on "the truth."

We are building a place to get clear on a story — and stay clear when new evidence becomes available.

Selection and omission bias always exist. While topic choice can't be perfect, we do our best to keep judgment out of the presentation — status, sources, and unknowns. Omnium will get better as readers help name the stories that matter.

Omnium is Latin for of all. News can come from anyone, anywhere, about anything — of all things.

Our name is a reminder of scope and stakes, not a claim that we can or will cover everything.

We hope "who runs Omnium?" matters less over time. We intend to stay largely faceless: this isn't about our personalities, ideologies, or personal brands.

Omnium is about what you can take from it: a clearer sense of where a story stands today, what remains uncertain, and how the record has changed.

Faceless does not mean unaccountable. We are human, and humans are fallible. Updates — whether they start with us, with you, or with drafting help — do not ship without human review. We are open to suggestions about how we can further the mission of Omnium more effectively. To ask a question, or suggest a story, an update, or a process change, write hello@omnium.news.

Omnium is still a side project — a shell of what it can be with real funding.

Self-sustaining isn't a slogan at the top of a manifesto; it's the constraint that decides how often we can update, how many stories we can follow well, and whether this stays a nights-and-weekends deal.

If you want to help, engage with Omnium or chip in via the coffee cup in the corner. If you know someone who might fund the next stage, write us: hello@omnium.news.

Simply put: more funding means more stories followed carefully — and more often — while the evidence is still moving.

Thank you for reading, your understanding, and your support.
