Ethics Policy

We subscribe to the Society of Professional Journalists’ Code of Ethics:

​Seek Truth and Report It: Ethical journalism should be accurate and fair. Journalists should be honest and courageous in gathering, reporting, and interpreting information.

​Minimize Harm: Ethical journalism treats sources, subjects, colleagues, and members of the public as human beings deserving of respect.

​Act Independently: The highest and primary obligation of ethical journalism is to serve the public.

​Be Accountable and Transparent: Ethical journalism means taking responsibility for one’s work and explaining one’s decisions to the public.
