Most news tells you what to think. TruVoice refuses to. On every issue, we run the same five moves:
The facts first, then both sides. Above every issue we put a neutral, center source (anchored by the Associated Press, rated center by independent raters) so you start from the facts. Then we show the left's framing and the right's framing side by side, each labeled with its AllSides bias rating, so you can see the spin and judge for yourself.
Our sourcing rules. We quote sources briefly and link to the original so you can check us. We never put fake words in anyone's mouth. We name our sources in the text, not just in a footnote.
The Reader Check-In. At the end of each issue we ask a few anonymous questions, did you understand the other side better? did your view move? not to persuade you, but to build an honest record of whether people actually engage across the divide.
Our promise: we put every side at full strength, we call out what each side is hiding, and we never hand you the verdict. You decide. We never will.

We will get things wrong. When we do, we'll fix them in the open.
How we correct. When we find or are shown a factual error, we fix it and add a dated note on the piece saying what changed. We don't delete mistakes and pretend they never happened.
What counts. Wrong facts, figures, names, dates, or misquotes get a correction. Updates to a developing story are marked as updates.
How to tell us. Spotted something? Email corrections@trujournalism.com with the article and the issue. We read every one.
Holding power to account starts with holding ourselves to account.
Who we are. TruJournalism is an independent media company built on one idea: that people can handle the truth from all sides, if someone will finally present it fairly. Our work is published under The Editor and The Editorial Team.
Why we exist. The idea was born in 2015, watching the news fracture into two hostile echo chambers, each side certain, each side slanted, "fake news" hurled as a weapon while genuinely skewed reporting hardened on both ends. We kept waiting for someone to lay the whole argument out fairly and trust the reader to decide. No one did, so we built it: a place that gives every side its strongest case, names what each side is hiding, and then gets out of the way. Not the news telling you what to think, the news, finally, treating you like an adult.
The family. TruJournalism is the umbrella. It owns three properties: TruVoice (our editorial arm, two-sided takes ending with the question handed back to you), TruPolling (our data arm, honest measurement of what people actually think and how views move), and Tru720 (coming soon)our audio/podcast and video arm.
How we're funded. Early issues are free, our gift, to show you exactly what we do. After that, TruVoice moves to a subscription model, with TruPolling included for members. We take no money from any political party, campaign, or interest group, and no funder gets a say in what we publish or conclude, because on the issues, we don't conclude. You decide. We never will.
Our independence. We label our sources by an independent bias rater (AllSides) so you're not taking our word for what's "left" or "right." We correct our mistakes in the open. And we'd rather earn your trust slowly than demand it.
