Every story distributed by Jam Press passes through a multi-stage editorial review process prior to release.
This includes reporter review, sub-editing, desk editorial checks and final production review before distribution.
Our Production Team — made up of experienced editors with extensive newsroom and agency backgrounds — reviews all visuals and accompanying editorial material prior to release.
Any concerns relating to authenticity, manipulation, ownership, accuracy, safeguarding or legal risk are escalated to senior editorial staff and, where required, the Editor-in-Chief for additional review.
Stories identified as carrying potential legal, reputational or safeguarding sensitivities are subject to enhanced senior editorial oversight before distribution.
No content is distributed without completing this internal editorial process.
Where possible, Jam Press verifies the identity and ownership of contributors before content is distributed.
This may include:
Contributors are required to confirm they have the right to supply the content submitted to Jam Press.
