Our values
Independence. We treat every event, company and person equally. No one has a right to special treatment, nor has the right to require it. We write for our readers, and pick topics we believe will bring value to them.
Expertise. We do not write about things we do not understand, cannot rely only on the opinion of the experts, but also do not have a right to make personal judgements for any expert.
Objectivity. Any statements, conclusions or assessments, which a journalist is making must be confirmed by facts, numbers or opinions of experts. Facts, numbers or opinions of experts have to be fact-checked. We cannot trust information from only one source.
Accuracy and fact-checking. We bear responsibility for our information, thus we check all reported facts.
