Weekly readers
We publish around 120 stories a day across politics, business, world affairs, technology, sport, opinion and culture, for readers in Coravia and across the Meridian Accord. Our journalism is funded by readers and advertising — never by any political party, government or interest group.
Editorial standards
Everything we publish is governed by the Montlior Editorial Code, which binds every member of staff and every freelance contributor. Its core commitments:
Accuracy first. We verify before we publish. Claims are attributed, data is sourced, and headlines must be supported by the story beneath them.
Independence. Editorial decisions are made by editors alone. Commercial, political and proprietorial interests have no say in what we cover or how.
Fairness. Anyone who is the subject of significant criticism is given a meaningful opportunity to respond before publication.
Transparent sourcing. We name our sources wherever possible. Anonymity is granted only to protect people at genuine risk, and always with an editor’s approval.
Clear labelling. News, analysis, opinion and sponsored content are visibly distinguished. Opinion writers speak for themselves, not for the newsroom.
Corrections policy
When we get something wrong, we say so — quickly, plainly and in the same place the error appeared. Significant errors of fact are corrected in the article with a dated note; materially updated articles carry an “Updated” timestamp; corrections to breaking coverage are made in the live file itself, not silently.
Spotted an error? Email [email protected] with a link to the article. We aim to respond within two working days.
Ownership & funding
Montlior News is wholly owned by the Montlior Group, whose shares are held by the Montlior Trust — a purpose trust established in 1988 to guarantee the title’s editorial independence in perpetuity. The trust deed prohibits the sale of the newsroom to any single commercial or political owner.
