Unnamed Sources Policy
Introduction:
Sbsial is dedicated to providing accurate, reliable, and transparent information related to media news, influencers, and celebrities through Sbsial mobile application and Sbsial websites.
In pursuit of journalistic and media integrity, this Unnamed Sources Policy outlines Sbsial guidelines for the use of unnamed sources and the decision-making process required for their inclusion in our content at Sbsial website and Sbsial mobile app.
Definition of Unnamed Sources:
Unnamed sources refer to individuals who provide information to Sbsial editors and journalists on the condition of anonymity.
These sources are not identified by name in the published content, and their identity is known only to the editorial team.
Guidelines for Using Unnamed Sources
Verification and Credibility:
Sbsial's Journalists and editors must make every effort to independently verify information obtained from unnamed sources to ensure accuracy and credibility.
Editorial Approval:
The decision to use an unnamed source requires approval from the Sbsial's editorial team, which includes an assessment of the necessity and credibility of the information.
Sbsial's Editors must be provided with sufficient context and background information to assess the credibility of the unnamed source.
Limitation on Use:
Unnamed sources should be used sparingly.
The preference is always to use on-the-record sources, and the decision to grant anonymity should be made only when absolutely necessary.
Documentation:
Sbsial's Journalists and editors should keep detailed records of interactions with unnamed sources, including the nature of the information provided, the reasons for granting anonymity, and any corroborating evidence.
Transparency with Readers:
The use of unnamed sources should be accompanied by a clear explanation of why anonymity was granted and the steps taken to verify the information.
Transparency is crucial to maintaining the trust of our audience.
Review and Updates:
This Unnamed Sources Policy will be periodically reviewed to ensure its effectiveness and may be updated as needed by Sbsial.
By adhering to these guidelines, Sbsial aims to uphold the highest standards of media and journalism content and provide our audience with accurate, reliable, and transparent information.
