Original Content Process
The content that we publish and the news that we feature are determined by our staff of editors, sub-editors, reporters, and journalists. These include the latest breaking news in politics, general affairs, business, health, sports, and entertainment. Our team of experienced journalists, reporters, and editors works with qualified expert consultants in each of these areas, providing the latest updates and detailed analyses, that give our content a fresh perspective not available anywhere else. Each original article is reviewed by our editorial staff and qualified experts before they are published.
Alpha News Call may receive funding from third parties for the creation of original editorial content from the Alpha News Call website and sister publications. In these scenarios, the third party may work with Alpha News Call to choose a general topic that is mutually agreed upon. However, the content will be curated in accordance with our original content process and the third party shall not have any control over it. Such content may receive the attribution “Supported by (name of the third party), during the period that the program is funded by them. However, this attribution does not in any way reflect any influence on the editorial nature of the content.
Each news article or story to be published is first reviewed by the expert consultant in the relevant area, for accuracy, appropriateness, fairness to individuals involved, and transparent and proper characterization of the findings. The content is next reviewed by a sub-editor who edits it for style, diction, punctuation, and readability. Finally, it is reviewed by the Chief Editor before it is approved for publication on the website.
Licensed and Third-Party Content
When Alpha News Call licenses news and reviews from third parties for publication on our site, the senior Editorial editors at Alpha News Call and content strategists review the third-party’s editorial policies and procedures for consistency and compliance with the Alpha News Call Editorial Policies.
Collaborations With Independent Organizations
Alpha News Call often collaborates with independent non-profit organizations and associations with the aim of serving the public by providing knowledge and information on topics relating to health, lifestyle, finance, and technology. We have a specific set of criteria and a clear framework to select and review these organizations before we work with them to create and curate the content on specific topics. Such content is created by the Alpha News Call content team, reviewed and edited by the third party, and then edited and approved by the Alpha News Call editorial staff.
Just as all other Alpha News Call content, collaborative content is also subject to Alpha News Call’s editorial policy and should adhere to standards of accuracy, transparency, objectivity, and balance. To let our readers easily identify this category of content and to learn about the association or organization in collaboration with whom the content is written, we place disclaimers with the name of the organization attached, either at the beginning or end of the page. We also disclose the information if there was sponsorship by third parties who have no control over the content.
Advertising and Sponsored Posts Policies
As described in detail in our Advertising Policy, Alpha News Call accepts advertising and sponsored posts or guest posts on the Alpha News Call news magazine and sister publications from qualified Advertisers. These may include badges, contextual advertising, third-party banners, and content created or provided by an Advertiser (collectively referred to as “Advertising”, “Advertisements”, or “From Our Advertiser”).
In addition, we also accept “native advertisements” which may appear in the form of thumbnail pictures, text paragraphs, badges, or other types of content or images, and typically appear adjacent to editorial content. These advertisements will, however, be tagged as “Sponsored Post”, “By (our Sponsor)”, “Provided by (our Sponsor)”, or “From (our Sponsor)”.
Regardless of the category or form of an advertisement, the responsibility for the accuracy and objectivity of their advertising falls on the advertiser and is also subject to Alpha News Call’s Advertising Policy. However, advertising is not reviewed by Alpha News Call staff and is not subject to this Editorial Policy. As such readers are expected to view such content at their discretion.
