Kalshi
The broadcast tracks whether specific topics or names are mentioned by any host or reporter during a news program. Each topic has defined criteria for resolution based on verbal mentions during the live broadcast, with promotional content counted but advertisements excluded.
All markets resolve based on whether specified terms—such as names, organizations, or phrases—are uttered by any host or reporter during the ABC World News Tonight with David Muir broadcast. The primary resolution method uses video footage; if inconclusive, official transcripts serve as the tiebreaker. Only content within the original live broadcast or stream counts, excluding post-broadcast additions. Promotional segments are included in evaluation, while advertisements are explicitly excluded. Each market specifies exact phrasing requirements, allowing for plural or possessive forms but not grammatical variations. If the broadcast is postponed and rescheduled within 14 calendar days per announcement rules, markets remain active. The entire broadcast content, excluding advertisements, forms the basis for all determinations.
Compared to traditional analyst forecasts, this market offers a dynamic, crowd-sourced probability that can react faster to breaking news and shifting public sentiment. While analysts may issue periodic reports based on models or expert judgment, traders in this market continuously adjust their positions based on real-time information, debates, and emerging trends. This can lead to notable differences when rapid developments occur.
