This was added to the discussion section of the Policy page:
Proposed policy: Rather than simply reporting on what is known, make an effort to include an explicit summary of what is still not known about a story. Knowing which relevent questions remain unanswered can be at least as important to the reader as knowing which questions have been answered. The reader will be made to realize that the news is not a complete, objective summary of the truth (a la Walter Cronkite's preposterous signoff, "And that's the way it was"), and will not be able to treat the reporting as authoritative; instead, he or she will be confronted with the need to think more critically about what has been reported.
