This Editorial Policy explains how Central Recorder Publishing produces the content published on centralrecorder.com. It reflects our commitment to accuracy, independence, and transparency.
1. Our Editorial Principles
The following principles sit behind everything we publish:
- Accuracy — we verify facts before publishing and cite reliable sources
- Fairness — we represent different sides of a story honestly
- Independence — our coverage is not dictated by advertisers or sponsors
- Transparency — we are open about who we are and how we work
- Accountability — we correct errors openly and promptly
2. Our Editorial Process
Before an article goes live it is researched, drafted, and reviewed. Our editors check it for accuracy, clarity, balance, and adherence to this policy, and we approach the people or organizations concerned for comment where appropriate.
3. Sourcing and Attribution
Our reporting draws on credible, verifiable sources, and we attribute information openly. Where we build on another outlet’s reporting, we credit it, and we never present rumor or unconfirmed claims as fact.
4. Advertising and Editorial
There is a clear line between our journalism and our advertising. Advertisers and sponsors have no say over what we report, and sponsored or affiliate content is always labelled, as noted in our Disclaimer.
5. Use of Technology and AI
Where we use technology or automated tools to assist with research or drafting, the output is reviewed and edited by a person who takes responsibility for the final content. Human editorial oversight applies to everything we publish.
6. Corrections and Updates
We aim to get things right, but when we make a mistake we correct it transparently. Details of how to report an error and how we handle corrections are set out in our Corrections Policy.
7. Questions or Feedback
Questions, tips, or feedback about our coverage are always welcome — reach the editorial team through our Contact page.
