Article score: 10.0/10
Every sentence starts counting for the article, because unanswered is how it was published. Answering it takes the point off the outlet and gives it to the person named. Green means answered, not proven: what an editor has checked against a document is written in each sentence's own label.

What the outlet published · Sentence 1
“De acuerdo a los datos ofrecidos por este lobby, en 2025 obtuvo más de un millón de euros en concepto de 'donativos', lo que implica una de sus recaudaciones más altas por ese concepto desde su fundación.”
Translation · ES
According to the figures provided by this lobby, in 2025 it received more than one million euros in "donations", which makes it one of its highest takings under that heading since it was founded.
What this claims, in our words
THE CENTRAL FIGURE, FROM THE ORGANISATION'S OWN DATA: more than one million euros in donations in 2025. The source named is Hazte Oír itself, not a leak.

Translation · ES
According to that document, last year it received income of 2,415,798.61 euros.
What this claims, in our words
TOTAL INCOME: 2,415,798.61 euros. Given to the cent, so it either matches the filed accounts or it does not.

What the outlet published · Sentence 4
“Según ha podido verificar Público tras revisar las memorias de esta organización publicadas a partir de 2013, hasta ahora sólo había logrado superar el millón de euros en materia de donativos en 2016, cuando obtuvo 1.106.852 euros.”
Translation · ES
As Público was able to verify after reviewing this organisation's annual reports published from 2013 onwards, until now it had only passed one million euros in donations in 2016, when it received 1,106,852 euros.
What this claims, in our words
THE COMPARISON THAT MAKES IT NEWS: only one previous year above a million, 2016, at 1,106,852 euros. The outlet states it checked every report from 2013 on.
What the outlet published · Sentence 5
“De acuerdo a los datos reflejados en sus distintos informes anuales, entre 2013 y 2025 el lobby que dirige el abogado Ignacio Arsuaga logró en total 9.720.156 euros en concepto de donativos.”
Translation · ES
According to the figures in its various annual reports, between 2013 and 2025 the lobby led by the lawyer Ignacio Arsuaga obtained a total of 9,720,156 euros in donations.
What this claims, in our words
THE THIRTEEN-YEAR TOTAL: 9,720,156 euros, and the organisation's leader named. A sum of published figures, so it is arithmetic that can be rechecked.
What the outlet published · Sentence 6
“Público contactó este jueves con Hazte Oír para formular una serie de preguntas en torno a los donativos.”
Translation · ES
On Thursday Público contacted Hazte Oír to put a series of questions about the donations.
What this claims, in our words
THE RIGHT OF REPLY, AS THE OUTLET DESCRIBES IT: it says it approached the organisation before publishing. Hazte Oír is the only party that can say whether it answered.
