How we handle other people’s reporting.
We publish the headline, a summary in our own words, a short quoted excerpt and a link to the original. We never copy the article, and we never re-host anyone’s photographs. Some publishers only allow the headline and the link — those stories say so. Every item names its source and date and links straight back to it. Read the full source list and our takedown policy.
We read 6 feeds on a schedule — every 15 minutes, with each publisher polled no more often than they ask for. Last checked .
