Field notes
The method page says the team selects five to eight stories from Times of Israel, Ynet News, and BBC News, linking them to verses or classic commentary. It says headlines are not rewritten, and considered-but-excluded stories are listed with reasons. The Codes Desk describes several comparison methods, including shuffled letters, shuffled word order, and ranking the parsha against same-length stretches of the Torah.
