Editorial Guidelines
At Jewish TV Channel, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of journalism, accuracy, and integrity. These guidelines outline the principles we follow in producing and publishing our content.
1. Accuracy and Fairness
-
We fact-check our reporting and strive to present information that is truthful, balanced, and verifiable.
-
Sources will be clearly attributed wherever possible. Anonymous sources are used only when essential and with editorial approval.
-
Corrections or clarifications will be issued promptly if errors are identified.
2. Independence
-
Our editorial decisions are made independently of advertisers, sponsors, or outside influences.
-
Any conflicts of interest will be disclosed transparently.
3. Respect and Non-Discrimination
-
We do not publish content that promotes hate speech, racism, antisemitism, Islamophobia, sexism, homophobia, or discrimination of any kind.
-
We avoid stereotyping individuals or groups based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, age, or disability.
-
Offensive language, slurs, or personal attacks will not be tolerated.
4. Sensitivity and Responsibility
-
Content involving sensitive topics (such as violence, crime, or tragedy) will be handled with care and respect for those affected.
-
Graphic images or descriptions will only be published when they are essential to the story, and with appropriate warnings.
5. Editorial Independence vs. Opinion
-
News reporting is kept separate from opinion or commentary.
-
Opinion pieces will be clearly labeled as such and will represent the author’s views, not necessarily the publication’s.
6. Originality and Plagiarism
-
All content must be original or properly licensed.
-
We credit all third-party material (quotes, photos, graphics, video, etc.) appropriately.
7. Reader Engagement
-
Constructive debate is welcome, but abusive or defamatory comments will be moderated or removed.
-
We encourage readers to contact us if they spot errors, have concerns, or wish to suggest improvements.
8. Legal and Ethical Compliance
-
All published content will comply with applicable laws, including copyright, defamation, and privacy standards.
-
We will cooperate with legal authorities where required, but also protect sources when confidentiality has been granted.
