Advertising & Sponsored Content Policy

337.NEWS may accept advertising, sponsorships, affiliate relationships, and other forms of commercial support.

Paid promotional material will be clearly distinguished from independent editorial content.

Sponsored articles, paid placements, affiliate relationships, or other material commercial relationships will be disclosed when they could reasonably affect a reader’s understanding of the content.

Advertisers and sponsors do not receive the right to alter independent editorial conclusions.

Payment does not guarantee favorable coverage.

337.NEWS may decline advertising or sponsorship arrangements that create unacceptable conflicts with editorial independence or reader trust.

Advertising should not overwhelm or substantially exceed the amount of editorial material on a page. Google News expressly warns against excessive advertising and against presenting sponsored material as independent editorial content.

Affiliate links, when used, may generate compensation if a reader completes a qualifying action or purchase.

Any such relationship should be disclosed clearly and reasonably close to the relevant content.
