Editorial Standards

How we gather, verify and publish news.

Breslin Media Network is committed to accuracy, fairness, and independence in all of its reporting. These editorial standards govern how we gather, verify, and publish news.

Accuracy

We verify information before publication. Where information cannot be independently verified, we say so clearly. Speculation and unverified claims are clearly labelled as such.

Corrections

When we make a factual error, we correct it promptly. Corrections are published in-line within the original article, noting the date and nature of the correction. We do not quietly delete or alter content without notice.

Independence

Our editorial decisions are made without reference to commercial interests or advertising relationships. Sponsored content is clearly labelled and kept entirely separate from editorial content.

Sources

We protect the identity of confidential sources where there is a genuine public interest reason. We do not pay sources for information. Anonymous sources are used only when necessary and when the source’s identity has been verified to our satisfaction.

Right of reply

Individuals or organisations subject to criticism or serious allegations are given a reasonable opportunity to respond before publication.

Content notices

Some articles are adapted from publicly available mainstream news sources and video reports. Where this is the case, the original source is credited at the end of the article.

Complaints

To raise a complaint about our coverage, contact us at [email protected]. We will acknowledge your complaint within 3 business days and investigate within 10 business days.
