Editorial Standards & Principles
Accuracy & Truth
Every article undergoes rigorous fact-checking. We verify sources, cross-reference information, and maintain the highest standards of journalistic integrity. When errors occur, we promptly issue corrections.
Transparency
We clearly identify our sources, funding, and any potential conflicts of interest. Our editorial perspective is clearly conservative, and we own that viewpoint while maintaining factual accuracy.
Editorial Independence
Our editorial decisions are made independently by our newsroom team. While we maintain a conservative perspective, our reporting is driven by news value and public interest, not external pressures.
Respect & Civility
We believe in robust debate while maintaining respect for individuals. Our commentary is passionate but civil, focusing on ideas and policies rather than personal attacks.
Ethics Policy
Source Protection
We protect the confidentiality of our sources when promised. Anonymous sources are used only when the information is newsworthy and cannot be obtained through other means.
Conflict of Interest
Our journalists and contributors disclose any financial, personal, or political interests that could influence their reporting. We maintain strict guidelines to prevent conflicts from compromising our coverage.
Editorial vs. News
We maintain a clear distinction between news reporting and opinion content. Opinion pieces are clearly labeled, and our news coverage strives for factual accuracy regardless of our editorial stance.
Corrections & Retractions
Accuracy is our highest priority. When we make mistakes, we correct them promptly and transparently.
- Minor factual errors are corrected within the original article with a notation of the correction and timestamp
- Significant errors warrant a separate correction notice published prominently on our website
- In cases of substantial inaccuracy, we will issue a retraction and explanation
- Readers can report errors to [email protected] for review
Verification & Fact-Checking Process
Our verification process ensures the accuracy and reliability of our reporting:
- Primary Source Verification: We prioritize first-hand sources and official documents
- Multiple Source Confirmation: Significant claims require confirmation from multiple independent sources
- Expert Consultation: We consult subject matter experts for complex topics
- Document Authentication: All documents are verified for authenticity before publication
- Editorial Review: Every article undergoes editorial review before publication
