Claim 4: “For over 200 years, the New York Post has been America’s go-to source”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim that the New York Post has been around for 'over 200 years' is repeated across multiple cross-references, but all these cross-references originate from the 'Nypost' itself (self-reporting). The Wikipedia entry confirms the paper was founded as the New York Evening Post but does not explicitly state the 'over 200 years' duration in the provided snippet. Since all corroborating evidence comes from the subject itself, it is treated as a single source of truth.
