Diverse Voices

A Gazeta's policy states that the diversity of opinions, beliefs and cultures is not only valuable to guarantee equity, but also to produce better journalism, more plural and connected to the debates of contemporary society. The policy adds that the team is committed to listen to the different points of view involved in a fact.

A Gazeta seeks a heterogeneous portrait of society, contemplating different voices and world views. It says it does not allow derogatory content of any kind. No one can be identified, in negative context, by sex, sexual orientation, race, religion, ethnic, regional or national origin, physical, mental or psychological characteristics, unless it is a relevant factor for understanding the information.

See the Policy

Corrections

A Gazeta strives to acknowledge and correct its errors as quickly as possible, on all its platforms. As soon as inaccurate information is verified, the policy is to correct it as quickly as possible. Minor grammatical issues, typos, spelling of names and links are exceptions to the rule.

Its policy states any changes must be made clear to the reader. It will include what the error was and what was corrected, and when the change was made (day and time). Errors and questions can be reported through erro@redegazeta.com.br or through a form at the end of each published piece.

See the Policy

Unnamed Sources

Despite being valuable for journalism, the policy only allows the use of anonymous sources in situations where they are absolutely necessary. For example, when a fact relevant to the public cannot be accessed by any means. The publication strives to find other ways to get the information, such as documents and testimonies.
