Editorial Policy

Editor americantribune

At American Tribune we are dedicated to providing journalism that is accurate, thoughtful and independent—with the aim of keeping readers well-informed and engaged. Our editorial decisions are made with integrity, transparency and a clear focus on public interest. We operate with full editorial autonomy: our editors and journalists decide what to cover and how to cover it, without interference from advertisers, sponsors or external influences.

Accuracy is the foundation of our work. Prior to publication, every article undergoes rigorous fact-checking, source verification and editorial oversight. When an error or omission is identified after publication, we commit to correcting it promptly and openly, with clear communication to our readers. We rely on trustworthy and verifiable sources. Anonymous sources are used only when absolutely necessary—when the information is vital to the public interest and cannot be obtained otherwise—and we protect their confidentiality in line with ethical journalism practices. Where possible, we provide clear attribution so our readers can assess the basis of our reporting.

Opinion and commentary pieces published on American Tribune reflect the viewpoints of their individual authors and do not necessarily represent the stance of the publication itself. These contributions are clearly labelled as “Opinion,” “Editorial,” or similar so that readers understand the distinction from news reporting. We welcome diverse, informed perspectives and encourage respectful, fact-grounded discussion. Reader engagement matters to us: if you believe you’ve discovered an inaccuracy, have concerns about our coverage or wish to provide feedback, you are encouraged to contact our editorial team. Every valid piece of feedback is reviewed and, when needed, corrections or clarifications are published in a transparent manner.

Our team adheres to core ethical journalism principles—honesty, fairness, respect for individuals’ dignity and privacy, and a commitment to the public interest. We reject plagiarism, misleading narratives, discrimination, hate speech and content designed to mislead or harm our community. Whenever American Tribune publishes sponsored, branded or promotional content, it is clearly labelled so that readers understand its nature. Editorial operations remain strictly separate from commercial or promotional activities to preserve trust and independence.

We believe that an informed audience strengthens democracy and community. Through independent reporting, clear analysis and unwavering integrity, American Tribune strives to inform, engage and empower readers every day.
