Journalism Ethics and Transparency
We proudly abide by the Society of Professional Journalists Code of Ethics, a set of guiding principles that emphasizes the responsibility of journalists to provide accurate, fair, and thorough reporting. The code highlights four core tenets:
Seek Truth and Report It: Journalists should pursue honest, verified information and avoid oversimplification or distortion.
Minimize Harm: Respect for sources, subjects, and the public is essential, with an emphasis on compassion and sensitivity.
Act Independently: Journalists must avoid conflicts of interest and maintain impartiality.
Be Accountable and Transparent: Journalists should own their work, correct errors, and openly address ethical practices.
