What I wanted to say is basically that from people's perspective, there is no 'one truth'. By that, I mean that people's beliefs are in the general case always conflicting.
As soon as you design a system that is judging a story's credibility, you are dividing your audience between people who agree your system and people who don't.
Each person has his own weighted trust network, you can't go against that as trust is not something you can force onto people.
I was suggesting to keep the original story and attach additional information to it, and let people decide by themselves (knowing the full data) what credibility they give to a story marked by some as a lie and by others as a truth.
In other words, I was suggesting to keep your app's data immutable and append only - which is what Datomic (among other things) does.
