Our Editorial Principles
Britannia Daily is guided by the following principles:
Accuracy and Verification
We seek to verify information using reliable and, where possible, primary sources. Facts, quotations and significant claims are checked before publication.
Clarity Over Clickbait
Headlines are written to accurately represent the content of the article. We aim to inform readers rather than deliberately mislead or exaggerate.
Context Matters
We provide relevant background and context to help readers understand developing stories and significant events.
Clear Distinction Between Fact and Opinion
News reporting, analysis, commentary and opinion are clearly distinguished. Opinions and commentary are not presented as established facts.
Accountability
When we identify a material factual error, we correct it promptly and transparently.
Responsible Sourcing
Where appropriate, we identify the sources of facts, quotations, documents, official statements and other information used in our reporting.
Corrections
Britannia Daily is committed to correcting material factual errors when they are identified.
Readers who believe an article contains an error are encouraged to contact our editorial team with the relevant details. Corrections are reviewed by the editorial team and, where appropriate, reflected directly in the relevant article.
