At NIBRA we hold everything we publish to clear professional standards. This page explains how we work.
Accuracy and verification
- We confirm information with at least two independent sources, or a reliable official source, before publishing.
- We verify images and videos circulating online before using them, and credit their source.
- As breaking stories develop, we update them and make clear what is confirmed and what is not.
Sources
- We name our sources clearly whenever possible.
- We use anonymous sources only when necessary: when the information serves the public interest and cannot be obtained otherwise, and with the approval of the managing editors.
Fairness and separating news from opinion
- We present different viewpoints on contested issues.
- Opinion pieces appear in the Opinion section and are clearly attributed to their authors.
- Sponsored content is clearly labelled, and advertisers have no influence on our journalism.
Review before publishing
Every story is reviewed by the section editor and department head and, where needed, the managing editors, and every change is logged internally.
Corrections policy
- We correct errors as soon as we find them.
- When a correction is significant, we add a note at the end of the story explaining what was corrected and when.
- We do not delete published stories to hide mistakes, except for legal reasons or to protect people.
Report an error
If you spot a mistake, email info@nibranews.com with a link to the story and a description of the error, and we will review it promptly.
