Press Release Policy
Standards for press-release submissions and how they are distinguished from news.
Distinction from news
Press releases are written by the issuing organisation, labelled 'Press Release', name the issuer and original date, and are not edited into independent reporting.
Submission standards
Releases must be factual, lawful, non-defamatory, in English, and submitted by someone authorised by the issuer. We reject promotional spam, unverifiable financial claims, and content offering investment returns.
Editorial approval
Every submission is reviewed by an editor. Publication is not guaranteed and we may decline without giving reasons. Free publication is currently offered; any future paid or sponsored placement will be clearly labelled.
