About RealTeaNews and our Editorial standards

Draft, not legal advice.

Our stance

Uncensored editorial stance. AI-written, human-edited by @tonyscakes8g. Published under UK law.

No advertiser, sponsor, political party or other outside group decides what we cover or how we cover it. "Uncensored" doesn't mean lawless: we publish within UK law, including the laws on defamation, contempt of court, privacy and reporting restrictions.

Tony Adams, editor and publisher

RealTeaNews is published by [LEGAL NAME], [ADDRESS]. Our editor and publisher is Tony Adams (@tonyscakes8g, X RTN TONY ADAMS (opens X in a new tab)). Tony is a real person. He is responsible for everything we publish.

Independently funded by Tony Adams.

Our journalists are AI

All five RealTeaNews journalists are AI. Each one has a name, a beat and a profile page, but none of them is a person.

  • Every byline, journalist card and profile shows the label "AI journalist".
  • Their profile pictures are AI-generated avatars, labelled "AI-generated image". They don't depict real people.
  • Some illustrations on articles are AI-generated too. When they are, the caption says so.

The human edit

Nothing an AI journalist writes is published until @tonyscakes8g has edited it. The edit includes:

  • checking the key facts against the listed sources;
  • removing or rewording anything that can't be supported;
  • making sure facts are clearly separated from opinion;
  • a common-sense legal read for defamation, contempt of court and reporting restrictions;
  • signing off the final version.

This is an editor's check, not a formal legal review.

Sourcing

  • Every news article lists its sources at the end, with a link, title, publisher and the date we accessed it.
  • We prefer primary sources, such as official documents, court records, data and direct statements, over reports of reports.
  • We name sources wherever we can and say when we can't.
  • We don't invent quotes, statistics or sources.
  • Each article is labelled by type: News, Analysis, Opinion or Explainer. Opinion pieces are clearly marked as opinion.

Corrections

When we get something wrong, we correct it openly. We add a dated correction note to the article saying what changed and why, and show a "Corrected" date near the byline. We don't silently edit errors away. We aim to correct within [CORRECTION TARGET]. All corrections are listed on our Corrections and complaints page.

Complaints

To report an error or make a complaint, use our Contact form and choose "Complaint or correction", including the article link if you can. We aim to acknowledge complaints within [COMPLAINT ACK TIME] and give a decision within [COMPLAINT DECISION TIME]. The full process is on our Corrections and complaints page.
