What this audits

  • Editorial standards and source-checking rules across newsroom and freelance handbook
  • Rights clearance procedures across editorial and production
  • Distribution and embargo policies across desks
  • Topics an editorial review board expects to find but the working docs skip

When to use this

You run a newsroom, a publishing arm, or a content studio. Editorial standards, source rules, and rights clearance must agree across desks. A reporter following the wrong rule is a correction; missed clearance is a takedown.

Industries this fits

  • Publishing
  • Newsrooms
  • Content studios
  • Podcasting
