Discoverite is an independent media group and our mission is to deliver original, data-based news on the latest travel and living trends.
Editorial Guidelines
Purpose and Editorial Mission
Our editorial work at Discoverite aims to produce research and journalism that is grounded at its core in data that is verifiable and designs and methods that are fully transparent, all so that our readers can comprehend and appreciate complex matters without unnecessary bias or distortions.
We strive to only publish work that is accurate, fair, and accessible, while still being rigorous enough to withstand any serious external inspections.
Editorial Independence
Discoverite’s organization operates with complete editorial independence, that is, decisions about what to research, report, or publish are made internally and without influence from funders, advertisers, political actors, or affiliated institutions.
Standards of Evidence and Data Use
All of Discoverite’s reporting and analysis is fully grounded in data that is sourced from reliable, authenticated, and replicable materials whenever possible.
We also prioritize primary data, official records, peer-reviewed research, and transparent methodologies, though secondary sources may be used when clearly identified and contextualized.
Data analysis is, in that case, conducted using methods that are appropriate to the question being examined, and limitations, uncertainties, and margins of error are, in fact, explained in plain language.
Accuracy, Verification, and Corrections
At Discoverite, accuracy is, quite simply, non-negotiable.
Every factual claim is, in practice, checked against original sources or reliable documentation before publication.
Claims derived from data analysis are, in fact, reviewed for methodological soundness, and assumptions or modeling choices are disclosed so readers can understand how our conclusions were reached.
When errors are identified, corrections are issued promptly, visibly, and with an explanation of what was changed and why, rather than quietly edited away.
Editorial Review and Accountability
All major pieces at Discoverite undergo a vigorous editorial review procedure that assesses clarity, evidence, fairness, and potential impact.
Editors at Discoverite are responsible not only for style and structure, but also for ensuring that conclusions are supported by the available data and are not overstated.
Separation of Analysis, Opinion, and Advocacy
Our work clearly distinguishes between reported findings, analytical interpretation, and opinion-based commentary, so readers can, in a way, understand what is evidence, what is analysis, and what is perspective.
While data-based journalism can, naturally, have implications for policy or public debate, Discoverite does not, as a rule, engage in political advocacy or endorse specific political actors.
Any exceptions are, in that case, explicitly labeled and justified in the public interest.
