The Pate State Staff byline covers the site's editorial desk: companion stories drafted from the show's transcripts with Pate State AI, then reviewed before publishing. Every direct quote is machine-verified verbatim against the transcript and linked to its timestamp. How that works — and the rules the system enforces — is documented on the Standards page.
