This Editorial Policy explains how CHS Cat Stale produces the content published on chscatstale.com. It reflects our commitment to accuracy, independence, and transparency.
1. What Guides Us
The following principles sit behind everything we publish:
Accuracy — we verify facts before publishing and cite reliable sources; Fairness — we represent different sides of a story honestly; Independence — our coverage is not dictated by advertisers or sponsors; Transparency — we are open about who we are and how we work; Accountability — we correct errors openly and promptly.
2. How We Produce Content
Before an article goes live it is researched, drafted, and reviewed. Our editors check it for accuracy, clarity, balance, and adherence to this policy, and we approach the people or organizations concerned for comment where appropriate.
3. Sourcing and Attribution
Our reporting draws on credible, verifiable sources, and we attribute information openly. Where we build on another outlet’s reporting, we credit it, and we never present rumor or unconfirmed claims as fact.
4. Separation of Ads and Content
We maintain a clear separation between editorial content and advertising. Advertisers and sponsors have no influence over our reporting. Any sponsored or affiliate content is clearly labelled as such, in line with our Disclaimer.
5. Use of Technology and AI
Any use of automated tools in research or drafting is followed by human review and editing, with an editor responsible for the published version. No content reaches our readers without human oversight.
6. Fixing Errors
We aim to get things right, but when we make a mistake we correct it transparently. Details of how to report an error and how we handle corrections are set out in our Corrections Policy.
