Ethics

When we correct errors online, we do not have to indicate that the content has been altered or updated and what the error was, as long as we correct it.

We clearly inform sources when stories about them will be published across various media, and we indicate the permanency of digital media.

Personal online activity, including emails and social networking, should generally be regarded as private.

When we publish outside links, we are not responsible for their credibility.

We consider all online content carefully, including blogging, and content posted to social media. We can re-post rumours, as long as we indicate it to be a rumour.
