How does it work Pressestelle?
The Pressestelle is operated by the editorial collective and is a working group within the Decentralized. About organizational and structural issues Pressestelle we decide by consensus.
All published articles are read by at least two people from the editorial team according to the four-eyes principle. The editorial team edits all submitted contributions and, in case of doubt, decides on their publication. It is about spelling and legibility as well as about it, whether the contribution corresponds to the principles of our project.
Opinions and comments are made by us as such marked.
As the editorial team, we feel that the press code of the Presserats established ethical standards for journalism Committed.
