Editorial Policy

Mirror Standard is an independent digital newsroom committed to factual, transparent, and accountable journalism. Our editorial standards exist to ensure that readers can trust our reporting and understand how our stories are produced.

Editorial Independence

We do not accept payment, favors, or influence in exchange for coverage. Editorial decisions are made solely by journalists and editors, free from corporate, political, or government interference.

Accuracy and Verification

Accuracy is more important than speed. Our journalists verify information using reliable sources, document-based reporting, and direct attribution. When information cannot be independently confirmed, that uncertainty is clearly stated. Errors are corrected transparently in accordance with our Corrections Policy.

Fairness and Balance

We seek diverse perspectives on complex issues while avoiding false balance. Claims are evaluated on evidence and credibility, not ideology.

Transparency
