# Reactive Comment

Draft restrained, sourced comments when the client has standing on a fresh story.

## Preconditions

- Fresh story with published timestamp or date caveat.
- Client has direct standing.
- No tragedy/promotional block.
- Named spokesperson or approved voice.
- Claims and statistics are sourced.

## Structure

1. One-sentence context: what happened and why it matters.
2. Comment: 80-180 words, specific and quotable.
3. Evidence/proof note: why this spokesperson can say it.
4. Caveats: what not to overclaim.

## Output label

Always mark as `for human review`. Include source links and timestamp caveats. If standing is weak, recommend `do not send`; offer an internal/owned-channel observation instead.
