Mission and scope
Roovet News serves readers with local Jacksonville coverage alongside U.S., world, business, technology, culture, sports and community reporting. Our goal is to publish useful information with clear sourcing and an honest distinction between verified facts, analysis and opinion.
Accuracy and verification
Writers and editors should verify material before publication, use primary documentation when practical, distinguish confirmed information from developing claims and avoid presenting rumor as fact.
- Names, dates, quotations, statistics and links should be checked.
- Headlines and summaries must fairly represent the article.
- Material uncertainty should be disclosed to readers.
- Substantial updates should preserve the original publication date and show an accurate modification date.
Sources and attribution
Roovet News attributes reporting, quotations, data, images and outside research to their sources. Anonymous sourcing should be used only when the information is important, the source has a credible reason for confidentiality and the material can be responsibly corroborated.
Corrections and updates
When a material factual error is confirmed, we correct it promptly and clearly. Significant corrections should include an explanatory note. Routine spelling, grammar, formatting or link repairs may be made without a correction note when they do not change the meaning.
Independence, conflicts and sponsored content
Editorial judgment should not be purchased. Advertising, sponsorships, affiliate relationships and paid submissions must be clearly labeled and should not be presented as independent reporting. Contributors should disclose material personal or financial conflicts relevant to their work.
Fairness and representation
Coverage should avoid unnecessary stereotyping, seek relevant perspectives and give people or organizations facing significant criticism a reasonable opportunity to respond when practical. Roovet News aims to represent Jacksonville and the wider communities it covers with accuracy, dignity and context.
AI and editorial technology
Automated and AI-assisted tools may support research organization, transcription, editing, accessibility or production. Human publishers remain responsible for accuracy and publication decisions. Tools must not be used to fabricate sources, quotations, evidence or firsthand reporting.
Ownership and funding
Roovet News is published by Roovet News Media LLC as part of the Roovet platform. Operations may be supported by advertising, subscriptions, services and other clearly identified commercial activity. Commercial relationships do not excuse inaccurate or deceptive editorial material.
Actionable feedback
