Editorial Policy

user

At Barcelona Tribune, our goal is to provide insightful, reliable journalism that enables our readers to understand and engage with the important issues of our time. We are committed to upholding the highest standards of integrity, clarity, independence and fairness in every story we publish.

Editorial Independence

Barcelona Tribune maintains full editorial autonomy. Decisions about what we cover and how we cover it are made solely by our editorial team with one focus: the truth and public interest. We are not influenced by advertisers, sponsors or external parties in determining our content.

Accuracy and Verification

Credible journalism begins with accuracy. Every article at Barcelona Tribune goes through a strict verification process: facts are checked, sources are validated, and editors ensure the information is trustworthy. If we discover an error after publication, we will correct it quickly and transparently.

Sources and Attribution

We use only reliable and verifiable sources. When we rely on anonymous sources, it is only in rare cases where the information is of significant public interest and cannot be obtained otherwise; in such cases, we still make clear that confidentiality has been granted. All information is attributed clearly to its source wherever possible.

Opinion and Analysis

Commentary and opinion pieces published by Barcelona Tribune reflect the individual perspectives of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the editorial position of the publication. These pieces are clearly labeled as Opinion or Editorial, enabling readers to distinguish them from factual reporting.

Corrections and Feedback

We value dialogue with our readers and believe in accountability. If you notice an inaccuracy or wish to provide feedback on our coverage, please contact our editorial team. Each request is reviewed, and when valid, we publish corrections or clarifications as promptly as possible.

Ethical Standards

Our journalists adhere to core ethical principles: honesty, fairness, respect for privacy, and responsibility to the public. We strictly avoid plagiarism, discriminatory language, misleading narratives, or any form of hate speech.

Transparency and Sponsored Content

When Barcelona Tribune publishes sponsored or branded content, that content is clearly labeled as such to maintain transparency. Our editorial operations are kept independent from any commercial or promotional influence, so that our readers can trust the integrity of our journalism.

Our Commitment

We believe that stronger, well-informed communities are built on responsible media. Through clear reporting, independent analysis and principled ethics, Barcelona Tribune strives to inform, engage and empower readers every day.
