At Get House Plant, our commitment is to produce newsworthy, accurate, and helpful content that resonates with and serves a diverse audience. Our editorial teams are dedicated to maintaining accuracy and integrity in both our reporting and researching processes.
We actively foster a collaborative environment by working with a diverse group of writers and editors who represent a wide spectrum of ages, races, gender identities, sexual orientations, ethnicities, and abilities. This diversity is reflected in our content, ensuring a rich and inclusive representation of perspectives and experiences.
We take great care in ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the information presented in our articles, including news. Our dedicated team of writers and editors thoroughly investigates claims, relying on a diverse range of qualified sources to provide readers with proper context and background.
All news and information undergo a meticulous review process to maintain the highest standards. A staff editor carefully evaluates the content, and our experienced fact-checking team verifies the accuracy of the information. We prioritize accuracy, relevance, and timeliness in every article we publish.
Accuracy & Corrections
For our extensive library of educational service content, commonly referred to as “evergreen” material, we commit to regular updates. Professional review boards and fact-checking procedures are integral parts of this process, ensuring the ongoing publication of accurate, complete, relevant, and up-to-date information.
Articles in our content library undergo rigorous and systematic updating and verification, and each is date-stamped to signal to readers that the information is current and accurate. It’s important to note that news articles, which often focus on specific events in time, do not follow our routine update process.
Sourcing
Our commitment to journalistic integrity is evident in our rigorous standards for article sourcing. Our writers and editors strictly adhere to these standards by relying on current and reputable primary sources, which include expert interviews, government organizations, and professional and academic institutions and studies. We ensure that all data points, facts, and claims in our articles are supported by at least one credible source.
We emphasize transparency and accountability by strongly discouraging anonymous or unnamed sourcing, as we recognize its potential to erode reader trust. In the rare instance where we employ an unnamed source, we make it a priority to disclose the reason behind the anonymity and provide readers with the necessary context.
Originality
At GetHousePlant, our primary objective is to deliver original, valuable, and impartial content. To uphold these standards, we mandate that all information is thoroughly verified, properly attributed, and does not infringe upon copyrights or anyone’s intellectual property rights. Any indication of plagiarism is thoroughly investigated and can result in dismissal.
We hold our contributors to a high standard, expecting them to adhere to all applicable laws, standards, and accepted journalistic practices. This commitment ensures that our audience receives content that is reliable, ethically sourced, and upholds the principles of integrity in journalism.
