Ownership and Funding

Mirror Standard is an independent digital newsroom. This page explains how the publication frames editorial control, funding disclosures, and conflicts.

Editorial control

Mirror Standard's editorial decisions are made by journalists and editors, not by outside political, corporate, or government actors.

Where a story would require a disclosure because of a relevant conflict, Mirror Standard's expectation is that the relationship is disclosed or the assignment is moved.

Funding transparency

Mirror Standard aims to keep a clear boundary between editorial work and any advertising, sponsorship, or commercial arrangements. Paid or sponsored material must be labeled and kept distinct from reported coverage.

What this page is for

Readers increasingly evaluate journalism through trust signals as much as headlines. This page exists so the newsroom's independence claims are visible, inspectable, and linked from the public site.
