OUR MISSION

STEPS TO BECOMING A CONTRIBUTOR OF UNCHAINEDTV

Our journalistic focus is on the following issues: animal rights, the plant-based, cruelty-free lifestyle, climate change, food justice, health, and associated issues like human world hunger and workers’ rights.

Because we cover animal issues, and animals cannot offer their side of the story, we articulate the needs and rights of animals who would otherwise be utterly voiceless and powerless. This is our mandate: to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves and to report on animal issues often ignored by mainstream media.

Code of Conduct For Contributors

Each UnchainedTV Reporter is required to read and abide by this code of conduct. Please email info@unchainedTV.com when you have finished reading the document.

We report on a wide range of stories, organizations, events, and programs related to the above topics.

Like many journalistic organizations, UnChainedTV.com has an editorial board that endorses programs and takes a stand on issues. Like many other digital news organizations, UnChainedTV.com also relies on contributors from around the globe to supply content. Please be advised that UnChainedTV.com is not responsible for the commentary of its contributors. The commentary and opinions of contributors do not necessarily reflect the views of UnChainedTV.com or its management. We are a digital network that allows others to express their views, much as newspapers publish opinion pieces.

Increasingly, UnChainedTV has been asked by various individuals and organizations to ignore certain other organizations or programs, trying to make the case that the other organization/program in question is not worthy of coverage for whatever reason or has done something wrong.

Please be advised that a news blackout of an organization/program would conflict with our journalistic policies. We don’t play favorites with organizations or programs. We cover issues as they arise and report on the activities of organizations as they come up. If we were to listen to every objection we receive, we would be paralyzed and not cover anything.

UnChainedTV’s very mission is to counteract the mainstream media’s news blackout on animal rights issues. So, for us to engage in our own news blackout, would be hypocritical. Exceptions to this policy would include cases where we determine a news report/coverage could pose a danger to others, be they human or animal, or potentially create a legal and/or journalistic issue.

Those who object to an organization or program have other recourses, be they in a court of law or the court of public opinion.

Those who have a problem with another organization or program are directed to the above policy. Thank you for your consideration.
