At PrimeUSA24, we hold ourselves to the highest standards of journalism across all our coverage areas—from breaking news and politics to sports, business, and automotive reporting. We’ve adopted the Society of Professional Journalists’ Code of Ethics as our guiding framework:
1. Seek Truth and Report It
- Verify facts before publication
- Use original sources whenever possible
- Provide context so readers understand why a story matters
2. Minimize Harm
- Treat sources, subjects and colleagues with respect
- Balance the public’s need for information against potential harm or discomfort
- Show compassion for those affected by tragedy or grief
3. Act Independently
- Refuse gifts, favors or special treatment that could influence our reporting
- Disclose unavoidable conflicts of interest to our readers
- Resist pressure—editorial, commercial or political—to shape coverage unfairly
4. Be Accountable and Transparent
- Explain our reporting process and correct any errors promptly (see our Correction Policy)
- Welcome constructive criticism and engage with reader feedback
- Disclose our sources and methods as fully as possible, subject to protecting anonymity when necessary
