Editorial policy

Clarity starts with the status of a claim.

Reporting and attribution

Official announcements, attributed reporting, rumour and analysis are labelled separately. A repeated claim does not become confirmed through repetition. Material facts need source evidence, and original reporters should be credited.

Human review and AI assistance

Research and drafting tools may assist the editorial desk. A human reviewer approves the exact version released to readers. Generated copy, source material and imagery remain subject to evidence and rights checks.

Images and corrections

Photographs require a supported right to use them and a credit where required. If a material error is found, the newsroom prepares a corrected version and a visible notice. The public correction record lists released corrections.

The operator must approve a dated policy version and publish verified contact details before production activation.
