Attributed claims Attribution helps readers distinguish a source's claim from the article narrator's own assertion.
Uncertainty qualifiers Qualifiers such as may, might, or reportedly are disclosed as technique but do not add framing-risk points by themselves.
Attributed framing cues Attributed or quoted cues remain visible, but their score contribution is reduced to avoid assigning a speaker's wording to the reporter.
