Editorial policy

Accuracy

We report only what our sources support. We name where information comes from, and link to it where we can. When we are not sure about a detail we check it before publishing, flag the uncertainty or leave it out.

Independence

Editors decide what we publish. Advertisers, sponsors and other outside parties do not influence our coverage, and any paid or sponsored content would be clearly labelled.

Sources and attribution

We rewrite in our own words and credit the original reporting. We do not copy other publishers' work or reproduce their images without permission. Images come from the sources we rely on or from licensed material, and a generated illustration, if we ever use one, is labelled as such.

How stories are chosen

We look at what is being widely reported and what many people are searching for each day. Serious and fast-moving events, such as conflicts and emergencies, get priority.

Opinion

Opinion pieces are labelled and kept separate from news.

Use of AI

Some stories are drafted with AI tools and checked before publication. See our AI use policy.

Corrections

We fix mistakes openly. See our corrections policy.
