Sorry for being very negative, since I'm generally happy about every initiative that looks into these things, but:

The format looks needlessly complicated and not very "open web" to me, compared to e.g. HTML with maybe some extra info, e.g. microformats2 syntax (could even reuse existing vocabulary from there). Works in browsers, feed readers, website-previews in other software, ..., and software that understands the extras can upgrade the presentation with them). It's not clear to me what downside of existing formats this solves that couldn't integrate with what exists already.

Also, while some standard for decentralized publishing would be useful, I don't think it's what journalism needs to fight fake news/propaganda, those happen on totally different levels, so bringing that in seems odd. Decentralized publishing won't be suddenly enabled by a new file format.
