Reporting Code

Accuracy and context

We distinguish established facts from interpretation and attribute claims to their source. Headlines and summaries should reflect the substance of the reporting.

Independence and disclosure

Editorial decisions are guided by relevance to readers. Corporate statements appear in Company File and are identified separately from reporting and analysis.

Corrections and fairness

Readers may bring errors to the editorial office. Corrections should identify the point amended. People and organisations subject to significant criticism should have an opportunity to respond.
