Our core guiding principles of practice are highlighted below.
Truth and Accuracy
Newsdish cannot always guarantee ‘truth’, but getting the facts right is the cardinal principle of our practice of journalism. We always strive for accuracy, give all the relevant facts we have and ensure that they have been checked. When we cannot corroborate information we leave out.
Fairness & Impartiality
Most stories have at least two sides. While there is no obligation to present every side in every piece, Newsdish makes every effort to be balanced in our reportage while only we add context with the confines of global journalism ethics.
Independence
Newsdish is independent. We do not act, formally or informally, on behalf of any special interests whether political, corporate, ethnic or religious. Every jorunalist and writer who produces material on this website have been given independence of thoughts
Accountability
A sure sign of professionalism and responsible journalism is the ability to hold ourselves accountable. When we commit errors we correct them and our expressions of regret are always sincere not cynical. We listen to the concerns of our audience. We may not change what readers write or say but we will always provide remedies when we are unfair.
Our philosophy is shaped by the editorial guidelines and objectives outlined herein
