Once the content is verified, they may create the post in video, audio, image, or textformat.
Reviewers

Randomly assigned to anonymously review the content submitted by CCs.
They provide feedback and ensure the integrity and accuracy of the content and sourcesused.
They can also act as a CC, but their posts are verified by another random reviewer.
