Policy
Editorial Policy
Sineth News is committed to accuracy, evidence, fairness and transparency.
Accuracy
Material factual claims should be verified using reliable sources before publication. Where an authoritative primary source is available, we prefer it over secondary summaries.
Fact and allegation
We distinguish established facts from allegations, opinions, estimates, forecasts and interpretations. An allegation is reported as an allegation unless reliable evidence establishes it as fact.
Independence and balance
Reporting should not be written to promote a political party, government, opposition movement, company or other interested organization. Relevant competing evidence and responses should be represented where they materially affect understanding of the story.
Balance does not require presenting unsupported claims as equivalent to well-established evidence.
Sources
We prefer original documents, official statistics, judgments, legislation, scientific publications and direct evidence whenever reasonably available.
Uncertainty
If important facts remain uncertain, we say so.
Corrections
Material errors should be corrected transparently when identified.
Commentary and analysis
Where an article contains analysis or opinion rather than straight reporting, this should be clearly identifiable to the reader.
Our aim is news without the color: accurate, impartial and balanced reporting grounded in evidence.
