Code of Ethics
News Plus Globe is committed to upholding the highest standards of journalistic integrity. Our reputation is built on the trust of our readers, and this code of ethics outlines the principles that guide our work.
1. Truth and Accuracy
We are committed to reporting the truth. Our journalists must strive for accuracy, provide all the relevant facts, and ensure that they have been checked. If we make a mistake, we will correct it promptly and clearly.
2. Independence
We are independent of any political, commercial, or personal interests. Our reporting is not influenced by advertisers, governments, or any other external parties. We avoid conflicts of interest, real or perceived, and disclose any that are unavoidable.
3. Fairness and Impartiality
We are committed to being fair and impartial. We will represent all sides of a story and give individuals and organizations the opportunity to respond to any allegations made against them. We aim to report, not to campaign.
4. Humanity and Harm Limitation
We are mindful of the impact of our words and images on the lives of others. We treat all subjects of our reporting with respect and compassion, especially victims of crime or tragedy. We balance the public's right to know with the individual's right to privacy.
5. Accountability
We are accountable to our readers. We are transparent about our reporting process and welcome feedback and criticism. We will hold ourselves to the standards we set out in this code.
