frankie press editorial code of conduct
At frankie press, we aim to entertain and inform our readers with content that is thoughtfully written, responsibly sourced and creatively expressed. While our tone is often playful, humorous and satirical, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of editorial integrity across our website and printed products. To ensure this, we have established the following Editorial Code of Conduct that our team members, contributors and users are expected to adhere to.
ACCURACY AND FAIRNESS
Our printed and online content reflects our thoroughly examined perspectives. Our content is based on responsible and reliable sources. No content is published without internal review.
Subject to legal guidance, prompt correction or appropriate remedial action will be undertaken if published material is found to be substantially inaccurate. Information sourced from social media and other technologies should be verified for accuracy.
We value feedback from our readers and consider it an essential part of maintaining our editorial standards. To report any inaccuracies or provide feedback, please feel free to reach out to us via email at hello@frankiepress.com.au
INDEPENDENCE AND INTEGRITY
Editorial decisions are independent of external influences, including advertisers, sponsors, or any other potential conflicts of interest. Writers, editors and contributors should disclose any personal or financial interests that may affect their work or be perceived as a conflict of interest.
TRANSPARENCY
We are transparent about our sources and any potential biases that may exist in our content. Sponsored content or advertorials will be clearly labelled to distinguish them from regular editorial content.
RESPECT AND DIVERSITY
We foster a respectful and inclusive environment, avoiding content that promotes discrimination, hate speech, or any form of harm towards individuals or groups. We celebrate diversity and strive to represent a wide range of perspectives in our content.
PRIVACY AND SENSITIVITY
We respect individuals' privacy rights and adhere to ethical standards when handling sensitive information. Content should be mindful of cultural sensitivities, and we avoid gratuitous use of graphic or offensive language or images.
USER ENGAGEMENT
We encourage constructive and civil discourse in our comments section, fostering a space for meaningful discussion. We reserve the right to moderate and remove comments that violate our Code of Conduct or community guidelines.
ACCOUNTABILITY
We assume responsibility for the content published on our site, committing ourselves to uphold our values and adhere to these principles. We are committed to continually improving our editorial processes and standards, adapting to evolving journalistic practices and industry guidelines.
If any user, partner, or individual holds concerns about our content or believes their concerns have not been adequately addressed, they are welcome to refer the matter to us for a formal investigation.
By adhering to this Editorial Code of Conduct, we aim to uphold the trust and confidence of our readers while providing them with informative, entertaining and ethical information. Our commitment to journalistic integrity is fundamental to our mission at frankie press.
