The Netherlands, in English

Ethics policy

Daily Dutch News is built around clear, useful and responsible English-language coverage of the Netherlands.

Accuracy and context

We try to present facts in context and avoid overstating what is known. If information is uncertain, developing or based on early reports, the article should make that clear.

Fairness

We avoid misleading headlines, unsupported claims and unnecessary sensationalism. People, organisations and communities should not be described in a way that distorts the facts of the story.

Sensitive stories

Stories involving crime, accidents, health, children, death, immigration or legal proceedings need extra care. We aim to avoid unnecessary personal details unless they are clearly relevant to public understanding.

Use of sources

We generally rely on official information, direct statements and multiple credible sources. We do not knowingly publish fabricated information.

Corrections

When readers raise a possible factual issue, we review it through the corrections process.

Questions or concerns

Readers can contact [email protected] with concerns about accuracy, fairness or context.
