Editorial Policy

Our Editorial Commitment

Ronny TV is committed to producing journalism that is accurate, responsible, relevant and useful to its readers.

Through ronnytv.co.ke, we cover news and developments across Kenya and beyond, including politics, business, counties, entertainment, sports, technology, public affairs and stories affecting communities.

Our editorial decisions are guided by public interest, accuracy, fairness and the responsibility to provide reliable information.

Accuracy and Verification

Accuracy is central to our journalism. Before publishing information, Ronny TV seeks to establish facts using credible sources and available evidence.

Important details such as names, dates, locations, figures, quotations and identities are checked where possible.

When an event is still developing, an initial report may be published based on information reasonably available at the time. Such reports may be updated as further verified information becomes available.

Ronny TV does not knowingly publish false information.

Sources and Attribution

Ronny TV seeks to identify sources where appropriate. Sources may include government institutions, public officials, police and investigative agencies, courts, companies, political organisations, experts, eyewitnesses and official documents.

Information obtained from social media or members of the public may require additional verification.

Anonymous sources may be used where information is significant, confidentiality is justified and the information is considered sufficiently credible.

Allegations and Right of Reply

Ronny TV distinguishes between allegations and established facts.

When reporting accusations or disputed matters, we aim to identify who made the claim and provide relevant context. Where appropriate, affected individuals or organisations may be given an opportunity to respond.

Political and Election Reporting

Ronny TV reports political developments based on newsworthiness and public interest.

Coverage of political figures, parties or organisations does not automatically constitute endorsement.

During elections, we will avoid presenting unverified claims as confirmed results and will treat official results as such only when released or confirmed by the relevant authority.

Breaking News and Corrections

Breaking stories may be updated as new information becomes available.

Where a significant factual error is identified, Ronny TV will review and correct it where necessary under our Corrections Policy.

Editorial Independence

Ronny TV seeks to maintain a clear distinction between editorial decisions and commercial interests.

Advertising, sponsorship, political actors, businesses and other external parties should not assume that financial relationships guarantee favourable coverage.

Privacy and Sensitive Reporting

Ronny TV considers public interest, relevance and potential consequences when handling sensitive information, particularly involving children, vulnerable individuals, private medical matters and traumatic events.

Artificial Intelligence

Ronny TV may use technology and artificial intelligence for research support, transcription, translation, formatting, editing and other production tasks.

Artificial intelligence does not replace editorial responsibility. Published material remains subject to appropriate human review.

Accountability

Readers are encouraged to report significant factual concerns through our Contact Us page. Editorial concerns may also be raised through our Complaints Policy.
