Editorial Policy
Last updated: June 9, 2026
Proven Alternatives publishes news summaries, analysis, opinion, and civic commentary. This policy explains how content is selected, reviewed, corrected, and labeled.
Editorial standards
- Accuracy: Factual claims should be grounded in source material, public records, reputable reporting, official statements, or clearly identified primary sources.
- Clarity: Headlines, captions, and summaries should avoid misleading framing and should reflect the underlying story.
- Separation of fact and opinion: Commentary and analysis may include viewpoint, but factual assertions should remain supportable.
- Context: Content should include enough context for readers to understand the issue without relying on sensational presentation.
Sources
We may rely on primary documents, public statements, court filings, government data, reputable news organizations, platform-native posts, and other public-interest materials. When practical, content should reference the source or describe the basis for the claim.
Corrections
When a material error is identified, we review it and correct, clarify, or remove the content as appropriate. Send correction requests to corrections@provenalternatives.com.
AI-assisted workflows
Editorial tools, including automation and AI-assisted drafting or formatting, may support production workflows. Human review or operator oversight is used for publishing decisions and policy-sensitive content.
Reader safety
Content should not knowingly encourage harassment, direct threats, unlawful activity, or platform policy violations.
