Obligation to the Absolute Truth:

Democracy depends on citizens having reliable, accurate facts put in a meaningful context. Contributors and journalists on United We Stand does not pursue truth in an absolute or philosophical sense, but it can–and must–pursue it in a practical sense. This “absolute truth” is a process that begins with the professional discipline of assembling and verifying facts. United We Stand will then try to convey a fair and reliable account of their meaning, valid for now, subject to further investigation. United We Stand is as transparent as possible about sources and methods so audiences can make their own assessment of the information; however, United We Stand is Kentucky’s Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, and Intersex News Magazine; as such, we support equality and fairness for all.

Forum

The news media are the common carriers of public discussion, and this responsibility forms a basis for our special privileges. This discussion serves society best when it is informed by facts rather than prejudice and supposition. It also should strive to fairly represent the varied viewpoints and interests in society, and to place them in context rather than highlight only the conflicting fringes of debate. Accuracy and truthfulness require that as framers of the public discussion we not neglect the points of common ground where problem solving occurs.
