Ownership & Funding
We believe readers have a right to know who is behind the news they read and how it is funded. This page sets that out clearly.

How we are funded
Our work is supported primarily by advertising displayed on the website (including programmatic advertising networks), and by audience revenue from our YouTube channel and other platforms. From time to time we may publish clearly labelled sponsored or partnered content.
Advertising and editorial separation
Advertising never influences our editorial coverage. Advertisers do not get to approve, preview or shape our news stories. Any sponsored content is labelled so readers can tell it apart from independent journalism, in line with our Ethics & Editorial Standards.
Third-party advertising
We use third-party advertising partners that may use cookies and similar technologies to show relevant ads. How this works, and your choices, are described in our Privacy Policy.
