YakoPost editorial standards.

These standards describe how YakoPost news stories, guides, reviews, and opinion pieces distinguish what they know from what they believe.

Accuracy before speed

YakoPost verifies material claims against primary sources whenever possible and distinguishes confirmed facts from reporting, rumour, and analysis. A fast story is only useful if it is also a reliable one.

Headlines reflect the article beneath them. Context is not left out simply to make a story sound more dramatic.

Corrections

Material errors are corrected promptly. Significant changes are noted on the article so readers can see what changed and why.

Reviews and recommendations

Reviews express the writer’s honest assessment. Review access, loaned products, and relevant commercial relationships are disclosed.

Opinion and analysis

Opinion pieces are clearly identified. They still rely on accurate facts, but their conclusions belong to the named writer.

Independence

Advertising and partnerships do not determine editorial conclusions. Sponsored work, if published, is labelled prominently.
