These standards describe the practices our reporters and editors follow when sourcing, writing, and publishing news. They are intended to make our editorial judgement visible and our reporting trustworthy.
Fact-checking & Verification
Before publication, every article is checked against source documents, official records, or firsthand accounts. Names, titles, dates, statistics, and direct quotes are verified independently.
Attribution & Sourcing
Every claim that is not public knowledge carries clear attribution. We avoid unattributed gossip or anonymous claims that cannot be substantiated.
Independence & Corrections
Advertisers and commercial sponsors have zero influence over editorial coverage. When factual errors occur, corrections are made transparently.
