Wirefeeds believe editorial integrity, accuracy and transparency form the core of our journalism. This Editorial Policy explains how we build, evaluate, and deliver content to source reputable, responsible and trusted information. News & analysis must not only inform, but also contextualize with maximum journalistic integrity.
Editorial Independence.
Wirefeeds is editorial with freedom at its fullest. We’re not affected by advertisers or sponsors or political parties or outsiders who tell us what to report.
Commercial relationships, partnerships and monetization don’t shape the way news is researched, written or published. Editorial articles are based on reality, public interest and relevance.
Content Creation & Research.
All content written and published on Wirefeeds is the work of original authors, editors, and contributors who have experienced writing, researching, or analyzing a subject.
We adhere to the following editorial process:
- Research through trusted, authoritative, verifiable sources.
- Fact-checking before publication.
- Context supplied for readers to realize the reasons events are important.
- Avoiding speculation, misinformation, or misleading statements.
- We chase the facts and do not run on speed with developing stories.
Accuracy & Fact-Checking.
Accuracy is one of our editorial standards. But we take reasonable steps to confirm information before it goes online, and we aim to present facts honestly and objectively.
If a mistake is found:
- correct it immediately.
- Content reflects updates.
Noticeable corrections are mentioned directly. Any segment of the content that lands on the wrong side of the fence or needs explanation or correction, we also encourage readers to contact us if they feel they need to be corrected.
Responsible & Balanced Reporting:
Wirefeeds doesn’t pick sides. Where relevant, we want to present a diverse viewpoint and limit unnecessary bias.
We distinguish sharply between:
- News reporting.
- Analysis and explainers.
- Opinion-based commentary.
Making this distinction gives a reader a clear understanding of what they are reading, and what it is doing.
Ethical Journalism Standards.
Wirefeeds adheres to ethical journalism principles, which is:
- Respect for truth and factual accuracy.
- Accountability and transparency.
- Respect for people’s privacy and dignity.
We do not post fake news or anything like that. AI & Editorial Control. Wirefeeds also have the ability, when digital tools are used well (such as AI) for research, writing, and content generation. All content is written in accordance with the guidelines, though. AI tools will not be able to replace that editorial judgment.
Updates & Content Maintenance. Some articles may update on a consistent basis in response to new information or data or events. Updates on articles are checked for relevance and reliability.
Reader Trust & Accountability.
We are in it for the reader, to gain his trust. But of course we’re supporters of constant improvement and we’re also really open to criticism from the people in our community.
Our Promise.
Wirefeeds takes responsible reporting that tells, educates and operates in the public interest seriously. We still publish content people can trust in this moment, and going forward.
