Editorial Standards

Accuracy first. We publish a claim only when (a) at least two independent, credible news organizations report it, or (b) it comes from an official primary source, such as a government agency, court or religious authority speaking for itself. Posts on social media are used only from verified official accounts and established reporters, and are labeled Unverified unless corroborated.

Original writing, clear attribution. Our briefings are written in our own words. Any wording taken from a source is in quotation marks, kept short and credited by name. Every briefing links to the original reporting so readers can check it.

Labels. Every briefing carries a status: Verified: multiple independent sources, Official source: primary statement, or Developing. Developing stories are updated as facts are confirmed.

No sensationalism. We do not use clickbait headlines, invented quotes, manipulated images or anonymous rumors. Opinion is never mixed into news briefings.

Fairness on politics and faith. We cover political and religious news without taking sides. Where a claim is disputed, we say who disputes it.

AI disclosure. Briefings are selected and drafted by an AI editorial system working under these rules. Corrections and complaints are reviewed by people.

Video. We only embed video from publishers' official channels, with credit. We never re-upload anyone's video.

Whitelist. Sources are limited to a published whitelist of established news organizations, public broadcasters and official agencies. Sources are removed if they publish fabricated or materially false reporting.
