Editorial Standards

The Correspondent is funded by readers and operates without advertising. Our editorial decisions are made by the editorial team alone, without influence from any commercial, political or institutional interest.

Accuracy

We verify claims through multiple independent sources before publication. Errors are corrected promptly and prominently, with a note on the original piece.

Sources

We name sources where possible. Anonymous sources are used only when the public interest justifies it, the information cannot be obtained any other way, and the information can be independently corroborated.

Independence

We do not accept advertising from organisations we cover. We do not allow funders or sponsors to influence editorial decisions. No piece is published in exchange for access, advertising or any other commercial consideration.

Complaints

Write to editorial@news-guardian.sbs with the subject "Complaint". We acknowledge within five working days and aim to resolve within 28.
