"As a part of Vox Media, Vox.com adheres to the Vox Media Editorial Ethics & Guidelines and to the following:
Vox has evolved and will continue to evolve as it builds a
portfolio of modern editorial networks and partners across multiple
mediums driving the future of journalism and entertainment. However, our
commitment to the core values of integrity and passion will never
change.
We believe in working with talented people, the judgment
of our staff, and the transcendent importance of serving the interests
of our audiences. Through the Vox Media editorial guidelines we aim to
give our teams clear guidance about what to avoid and the public
knowledge of what to expect. Simultaneously, we recognize the
impossibility of reducing the complexity of real life to a simple
checklist or rulebook and encourage conversation and dialogue with
colleagues and supervisors about concrete situations as superior to
trying to craft an ethics policy that would address every conceivable
dilemma.
As the needs of our newsrooms and audiences change, our guidelines will adapt in kind to ensure that Vox Media’s work is always deserving of our audiences’ trust."
