Standards
Sypher News pairs an AI-assisted research pipeline with a human editor who reviews every article before publication. The pipeline accelerates source gathering and framing analysis; editorial judgment stays with a person.
People
Every article is read end-to-end by Aaron Keating before it goes live. The editor checks sourcing, claim verification, framing balance, and clarity, and is responsible for any decision to publish, hold, or correct a piece. AI is a tool in the workflow — it is not the publisher.
Evidence
Stories must identify source material wherever possible. We prefer direct source visibility, named institutions, and primary documents over unsupported claims or recycled summaries.
Signal
Bias analysis at Sypher News is not presented as perfect truth. It is an editorial signal that explains how a story may be framed, where narrative pressure exists, and why that matters to readers.
Process
Readers see source lists, research notes, alignment rationale, and correction notices alongside each story. The goal is to show how the article was assembled — research first, editorial review second — and why a given framing assessment was reached.
Accountability
If a published story is wrong, incomplete, or misleading, we correct it visibly and preserve revision context when the change is editorially meaningful.
