EDITORIAL VALUES

Independence: We fiercely value and defend our independence. Our funders have no say in our journalistic output. We have no partisan or political affiliation. We believe in transparency and in holding the powerful to account.

Fairness: For us, quality journalism means accepting the complex and dynamic nature of people and issues. We do not shy away from controversy, but we always reach out to all sides when reporting on a contentious issue.

Trustworthiness: We adhere to the most stringent principles of our trade. We protect our sources. We check facts, vet our quotes, and publish corrections when inaccurate. We welcome readers' feedback.
