Editorial standards

Clear sources. Clear distinctions.

Reporting and opinion

News reporting, analysis, opinion, and reader guides are labeled. Our editorial perspective does not change the need to report facts accurately or identify uncertainty.

Sources and automation

We use permitted sources and publish original summaries with links to supporting material. AI can assist with drafting and original illustrations. AI-assisted articles are labeled, and stories flagged for sensitive claims or insufficient evidence require editorial review.

Images

Conceptual AI illustrations are labeled and are not presented as photographs of real events. Other submitted or editorial images must be owned or used with permission.

Corrections and history

Published stories remain in our searchable archive. Corrections are displayed with the article. Contact the newsroom with the article link and the information you believe needs correction.
