Editorial Charter

Editorial Independence

All editorial decisions at nairobibulletin.com are made by our newsroom team. Our coverage is shaped by journalistic standards and the public interest.

No external influence, including governmental or corporate entities, dictates the content we publish. Our integrity and independence guide all editorial processes.

Sourcing and Verification

Accuracy is the cornerstone of our reporting on culture, business, technology, and politics. We ensure every claim is thoroughly verified.

Sources may be granted anonymity when revealing their identity could risk their safety or livelihood.

• Cross-verifying information with multiple credible sources.
• Providing clear attribution for all quoted statements.
• Using anonymous sources sparingly and only when necessary.

Formats and Clarity

Our content is categorized into reporting, analysis, and opinion to help readers easily distinguish between fact and interpretation.

Each piece is clearly labeled to reflect its nature, supporting our commitment to transparency.

Corrections and Responses

Transparency in corrections is vital. We correct errors promptly on the original article.

If a person or entity is criticized, we provide the opportunity for them to respond, ensuring balanced coverage.

• Reviewing error reports and publishing corrections promptly.
• Updating articles with clear notices of correction.
• Providing right of reply to those critiqued by our reporting.

Handling Sensitive Material

We prioritize the privacy and dignity of individuals, especially when covering sensitive topics such as political scandals or cultural controversies.

Careful consideration is given to the potential impact of publication on private individuals and public figures alike.

Funding and commercial content

nairobibulletin.com is funded by hello. Advertising, sponsorship and affiliate arrangements pay for the work.

Commercial content — sponsored articles, partner posts, advertorial — is labelled at the top of the page, before the reader has spent time on it. It is never made to look like an article the newsroom wrote.

An advertiser buys space. It does not buy coverage, favourable treatment, or the removal of a story.

Complaints Procedure

We welcome reader feedback and aim to address concerns swiftly. Complaints can be sent to hello@gmail.com.

Each complaint is reviewed thoroughly, with outcomes communicated to the complainant timely.
