Editorial standards and newsroom principles

Our editorial standards

TGN Zambia aims to publish accurate, fair, clearly attributed and useful journalism. Editorial decisions are made independently of advertisers and commercial partners.

Core principles

  • Verify material facts before publication wherever reasonably possible.
  • Distinguish reporting, analysis, opinion and sponsored content.
  • Attribute information to identifiable and credible sources where appropriate.
  • Give relevant parties a fair opportunity to respond to significant allegations.
  • Correct material errors transparently.

This policy may be updated as the newsroom develops its standards and procedures.
