Editorial Guidelines
At HNA News, we believe journalism is a responsibility, not just a profession. Our editorial principles are rooted in accuracy, impartiality, and transparency. These guidelines ensure that the content we publish meets the highest standards of journalism and serves the public interest.
1. Accuracy and Verification
We strive for factual accuracy in every article. All information is double-checked with reliable sources, and we avoid speculation or unverified claims. If an error is found, we issue prompt corrections.
2. Fairness and Balance
Our reporting is fair and balanced. We aim to present all sides of a story and give voice to those affected by the issues we cover. Opinions and editorial pieces are clearly labeled and separated from news reporting.
3. Editorial Independence
HNA News maintains complete editorial independence. Our journalists are free from political, commercial, or ideological influence. We do not accept payment for coverage, and sponsored content is clearly disclosed.
4. Sources and Attribution
We prioritize transparency in our sourcing. Anonymous sources are used only when absolutely necessary, and we always provide attribution wherever possible. Plagiarism in any form is strictly prohibited.
5. Corrections Policy
If we publish incorrect information, we correct it quickly and transparently. Significant corrections are noted within the article, and minor edits are silently updated for clarity or grammar.
6. Sensitive Content
We report on sensitive issues (violence, crime, tragedies) with caution and responsibility. We avoid sensationalism and protect the identities of victims and minors wherever appropriate.
7. Reader Engagement
We welcome reader feedback and take it seriously. If you believe any of our content is inaccurate, biased, or violates journalistic ethics, please reach out at 📧 hnanews.in@gmail.com.
8. Editorial Team Responsibility
Final publishing decisions lie with our editorial leadership team. Every story goes through a review process before publication to maintain consistency and credibility.
