Ethics policy

We have a high editorial standard at the core.

Our journalists work according to Journalism ethics and standards, which sets the benchmark for ethical standards in journalism. All our editorial staff completes a training course in the Code and legal refresher training.

At KERALAFOX.COM we recognize that protecting the rights of the individual consistently comes into conflict with the public’s right to know. This means we have to make difficult judgments, sometimes quickly, which are impossible to get right all of the time. Regular bulletins and seminars give staff the best opportunity to learn from mistakes, whether our own or those of other parts of the media industry.
