policy statements

  • ethics policy

    From the Chattanooga Times Free Press

    Nothing is more sacred to us than the readers' trust in us to tell the truth, to be accurate, fair and impartial. We must be free of conflicts of interest. As journalists, we cannot simply use these standards as slogans; they must be a living truth evident in everything we say, do, and print. Any failure, by any one of us, to follow these journalistic truths undermines the credibility of our newspaper as an entity, of each of us as individuals and of our craft.
